About

Dill seeds grow Anethum graveolens , an annual culinary herb valued for its feathery leaves, yellow flower umbels, and mature seed heads. Choose a variety for fresh herb harvests, pickling, seed production, containers, or mixed garden beds.

Taller dill plants can suit garden rows and flower borders, while more compact types may be easier to manage in containers. Product availability changes, so use the individual page for current packet size and variety-specific traits. How to Plant Dill Seeds Site: Choose full sun and soil that drains well. Sowing: Dill is commonly direct-sown because its developing root can be sensitive to transplanting. Follow the packet for depth and spacing. Water: Keep the seedbed evenly moist during germination, then water as conditions require. Succession planting: Additional sowings can extend the supply of fresh leaves. Harvesting Leaves, Flowers, and Seed Heads Clip leaves as needed while the plant is actively growing. Allow some plants to flower when you want umbels for pickling, pollinator activity, or mature seed. Harvest seed heads according to the variety instructions and intended culinary use.
