Great for Mediterranean dishes, it imparts a mild aniseed flavour to salads and soups, wonderful with tomatoes. Half hardy annual with height approx. 30cm (12in).
Approximately 120 seeds.

| How To Grow | Simply fill a 9cm (3 ½”) round pot with soil mix leaving a 1.5cm (1/2”) gap from the top of the pot for easy watering later on. Place the mat on the soil and firm down gently. Cover with a fine layer of soil, water well. Place in a warm position, a temperature of 15-20°C is ideal. Keep moist. Plants can then be grown on a sunny windowsill or patio. |
