Fennel Rondo F1

Description

Fennel seeds - Rondo F1

This is a quick growing variety of Fennel with uniform, round white bulbs. This variety is good for summer and autumn production.

A vegetable plant to grace any plot, an attractive vegetable with tall stems and feathery green foliage. Unlike the fennel in the herb section which is grown specifically for its leaves, the Florence Fennel is grown for the bulbous swollen plant base which can be used chopped raw in salads, braised as a vegetable or added to delicious winter casseroles. It has a mild aniseed flavour with a texture much like celery.

When to Sow Rondo Fennel Seeds

Where to Sow

Sow fennel seeds thinly, direct into a vegetable plot in rows 2cm (3/4in) deep and 30-45cm (12-18in) between the rows.

As the swollen stems start to develop, gradually build earth up around them to preserve the whiteness and flavour.

Maturity

Bulbs ready from September and October, Leaves can be used from July.

Handy Tip

The whole plant has a flavour, leaves for fish dishes, stems and bulbs raw in salads or braised as a vegetable.
