Notes

'Dukat' dill (Anethum graveolens 'Dukat') is an herb for borders, containers, and food gardens. It is typically grown as an annual. It grows well in cool weather and can ride out a light frost. This plant likes full or part sun and average to moist, sandy, loamy, or chalky soil. Deer tend to pass it by. The fragrant plant attracts butterflies, bees, hummingbirds, and birds.

Pairs well with Cilantro, Supersweet 100 tomato, and Redbor kale.
