Bronze Fennel Seeds
Info: Bronze fennel has feathery, bronze-purple leaves followed by flat-topped, sulphur-yellow flower heads in mid to late summer and then by aromatic seeds. This beautiful plant is an attractive eyecatcher in the herb garden. Fennel has a sweet aroma and an aniseed flavour. Use the fresh leaves in fish dishes, sauces and stuffings and in flavoured butters and salad dressings.
Fennel tea from the squashed seeds helps against bloating, digestion problems, diarrhea and infant colics and has a soothing effect.
Sowing & cultivation: Sow outdoors from April to August in a well-drained, sheltered but sunny position. Seedlings do not transplant well, so it is better to sow directly 25 to 30cm apart and then thin them out as necessary. If fennel is being grown exclusively for its foliage, remove flower heads to promote bushier growth. Bronze fennel can be grown as an annual, although the established roots will overwinter easily. If allowed, the plant will self-sow generously.
