Description
200 Seeds Caraway, also known as meridian fennel and Persian cumin, is a biennial plant native to western Asia, Europe, and North Africa. The plant has rich green, finely divided, feathery leaves with thread-like divisions, similar to carrot leaves, and petite white buds. Caraway is a favorite spicy herb for adding flavor to breads, sausages, salads, stews, braises, and more. Leaves and seeds are also used as a flavorful balance to sweet breads and desserts. A month or so after the flowers fade, the small tasty seeds ripen and can be collected.

Use leaves to flavor food during the first year and use the seeds in the second year. It rarely becomes invasive, but if conditions are just right, it will spread. Water regularly but do not overwater. Caraway grows best in sandy or well-draining soil and full sun. After it grows larger, it can tolerate dry soil well. It does not transplant well so direct sowing after last spring frost is recommended. It can also be planted in the Fall. Within-Row Spacing: 6-8 inches Between-Row Spacing: 16 inches

I’ve not sowed, yet, any of the seeds I ordered from this site. The rate is based on the initial excellent customer service.
As soon as I see results after the sprouting of seeds, I’ll determine immediately the quality of the product.
Thanks to the seller for the important detail when shipped the order, it added a gift of pollinator’s seeds that will help tremendously in the yield of my vegetables.

The seeds were shipped quickly, and they arrived just as quickly, well-packaged and all! The extra gifts that I found in the package alongside the seeds I ordered was a nice surprise I didn’t expect to see! All-in-all, a wonderful experience again, and so, thank you so much again! Can’t wait to see how all these grow a few months from now!

I’m not ready to plant the mint yet, but it arrived promptly and in good condition; there was also an extra packet of seeds in my order, which also included onion sets I purchased. I am very pleased with and would recommend this seller.
