Very easy to grow. A must for all herb gardens. Tall plants are topped with clusters of tiny yellow flowers on the tips of an array of central stems. The fern-like leaves are very small but should be gathered for freezing and drying. Use the seeds and leaves too as a flavoring for fish, stews, vegetables, poultry, pickles and salads. Prefers moist, well drained soil and should be protected from wind if possible.
