Seed variety
Mammoth – Anethum graveolens
Dill, Anethum graveolens, is an aromatic annual in the Apiaceae. Its finely divided leaves contrast with the yellow flowers held in umbels. The long taproot helps explain why established seedlings are difficult to transplant. The fruits turn brown as they ripen and are distinct from the fine foliage.
