Florence Fennel (Foeniculum vulgare var. Azoricum) is a perennial herb that resembles celery and has the aroma and taste of anise but is sweeter. Seeds from fennel are used to flavor many things including Italian sausage.
The bulbs from fennel can be eaten as a vegetable whether it be steamed, stewed, or consumed raw.
yes id did buy and receive bamboo seeds from you. i planted same and now cautiously await some indication the sprouting will begin. we are in northern nj where it is quite cold so i am keeping the plantings in a planter system we use for seedlings. only time luck and patience will tell the ultimate story. if the seeds come to be small plants we will replant into pots until spring and after that we are guardedly optimistic. thanks for the request and service. stewart a farber
I do not have an indoor garden so I am waiting until spring to plant. I will try planting closer to Feb or March in small pods watering with spray bottle, and slowly introduce the plants to outdoor conditions.
