A member of the same family as parsley and cumin, its seeds have a flavor reminiscent of caraway while its leaves have a gentler, more subtle taste. It belongs front and center in your sunny herb garden.\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp\u003eDill is an annual with feathery blue-green leaves and tiny yellow blooms that produce masses of small brown seeds in fall. Both leaves and seeds are used in cooking, lending their flavors to everything from pickles to potatoes, eggs to fish.\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp\u003eFor a regular supply of dill leaves, make successive sowings of the seed every 2 to 3 weeks in well-drained, neutral to slightly acid soil in full sun. Dill prefers to be direct sown, and should not be covered with too much (if any) soil at planting time. Do not plant near carrots, as they react adversely, or too close to fennel, because the flavor can be affected. However, cabbage seems to like dill nearby, and it's a nice companion to onions.\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp\u003eEven if it were not so delicious, dill would be a valuable addition to the garden, both for its attractive umbrellalike flowers and its ability to attract beneficial insects that prey on aphids and other destructive pests in the garden.\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp\u003eExpect the plants to reach 36 inches tall and 12 inches wide. To harvest the seeds, secure a paper bag over the flowerhead as the blooms begin to pass. Shake the stem of the plant every so often; when the bag rattles, it is full of dill seeds.

English thyme is a mainstay of any self-respecting herb garden, of course, but it's also a useful plant elsewhere in the garden. A pest repellent, it's a natural way to keep the veggies and flowering plants looking good. Low-growing and dense, it fills in empty spots in the border nicely. Compact, it fits on the kitchen windowsill without constant pinching. It even makes a fine decorative (and fragrant) edging for any sunny spot.\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp\u003eThyme is essential in French cooking and has become a mainstay of American cuisine as well. Where would Thanksgiving stuffing be without it? (Not to mention Simon and Garfunkel's hit song \"Scarborough Fair\".) English thyme is the variety most commonly used in cuisine, as the small, gray-green leaves are packed with flavor and easy to harvest by letting the stems dry (after cutting from the plant) for a few days, then simply stripping the leaves. \u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp\u003eThis plant is a woody perennial (technically a shrub), which will bring you four to five good years of foliage before it should be replaced. (The leaves begin to lose their flavor as the stems grow woodier with age.) If allowed to go to flower, it is a marvelous bee attractant, but if you want to use the foliage in cooking, pinch off the buds as soon as you see them, because the flavor deteriorates when the plant blooms. Thyme is a very pretty flowering plant, however, so we recommend that you also plant a stand of spreading, magnificently flowering Mother of Thyme in the garden to satisfy the bees as well as your own desire for blooms.\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp\u003eExpect this thyme to reach 12 to 18 inches high and about 24 inches wide. The stems are closely packed and short, standing almost straight up. Thyme will wend its way around existing plants in the garden without choking them out, making it a nice choice for filler in a garden that has a few bare areas. And it's evergreen above zone 6, so it makes a nice winter companion in warmer climates to the ornamental cabbages and kales, the snapdragons and pansies.\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp\u003eEarly each spring, cut this plant back to about half its size. This will greatly improve its vigor and branching. Don't simply shear it—you want to remove the topmost portion of each branch but leave growth on every stem. This simple treatment will result in much more dense, attractive, and healthy plants all season long.\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp\u003eThyme can take a while to sow, but it isn't difficult, just a procrastinator. Sow the seeds uncovered in your Bio Dome or seed flats at about 65 to 70 degrees. They should sprout within the month. (Yes, plan ahead.) Once sprouted, they thrive in high light, and may be transplanted into the garden or outdoor container as soon as they have two sets of true leaves. They need full sun, good soil drainage (add gravel or perlite to the soil if this is an issue), and a level of richness to the soil on a par with what you would give a tomato plant. Beyond this, they are famously easy, and it's such a pleasure to have a perennial returning season after season to the herb garden—not to mention a fragrant, attractive herb fighting off the flea beetles and cabbage pests in the vegetable patch.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"parkseed","offers":[{"title":"Pkt of 100 seeds","offer_id":42354479562811,"sku":"02015-PK-P1","price":2.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Pkt of 25000 seeds","offer_id":42354479595579,"sku":"02015-PK-25000","price":29.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0601\/8580\/4859\/files\/Product_MediaImage_02015_1.jpg?v=1753891852"},{"product_id":"products-orange-balm-mandarina-52757-pk-p1","title":"Mandarina Orange Balm Herb Seeds","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003ePerfect for an \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.parkseed.mom\/blogs\/park-seed-blog\/edible-landscaping-attractive-and-appetizing\"\u003eedible landscape\u003c\/a\u003e, Mandarina Orange Balm is a bushy perennial herb, similar to lemon balm, but its leaves smell like fresh oranges.

Cut them at anywhere from 6 to 8 inches long and new ones will spring up to replace them. Before you know it, you've harvested up to 20 gourmet \"sweet stem\" broccoli shoots, and Artwork is the last broccoli in the garden still producing.\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp\u003eThe secret to getting the most out of Artwork is to get rid of that central crown quickly. Cut it for eating when it's just an inch or so in diameter, or pinch it away even sooner if you don't need to harvest it. As soon as you do, the side-shoots begin to take off. Expect the first ones to be ready for harvest about 10 days after you've removed the central crown. Cut them promptly, and get ready to watch their replacements appear.\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp\u003eMany broccoli are better suited to crowning than to side shoot production because they tend to bolt (begin flowering) in hot weather—and hot weather is exactly what most of us have all summer long in the garden. Artwork, on the other hand, is very bolt-resistant, keeping its tight beads even when the temperature climbs. This gives you many more weeks of production . . . and means that new side-shoots can arise even in late summer, when other sweet stem broccoli varieties are done.\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp\u003eArtwork reaches about 8 inches wide and can top out at close to 2 feet, depending on how tall you let it grow.
