HERB-FENNEL-FLORENCE is a very very much underrated vegetable with so many uses; every part of the plant can be used! The fern like foliage can be trimmed and used as the conventional herb, the seeds can be dried and used for cooking – and of course the thick stems and bulbs can be grated raw in salads or cooked as a vegetable. In addition to all its culinary uses, Fennel is also widely used for its medicinal benefits. An extremely graceful plant that doesn’t look out of place planted in the vegetable garden, herb garden or even in your ornamental borders. Round white bulbs with thick crispy scales that have an excellent flavour.
Surface sow on moist soil after last chance of frost. Thin seedlings to 15-30cm apart. Moderate Water. Partial shade to full sun.

More About Us
When I started this journey in 2009, I found nothing existed commercially, that was reasonably priced and easy to use. There was a homemade system which I also found was not that user-friendly.
Then a friend of mine told me about a homemade method she used. However, when I tried her method, I found this also didn’t suit my needs, as it too had flaws that I considered where important. It did not keep vermin out, did not have a lockable lid and (to me) looked unsightly in the garden
