Organic Florence Fennel Preludio F1

Approx. 100 organic vegetable seeds per gardener’s packet

Our 100% pesticide-free Organic Florence Fennel, Preludio F1, is the perfect addition to a sunny vegetable patch and also thrives in a greenhouse. The beautiful feathery leaves and white bulbs of this variety are also gorgeous in a potager. And the mild, fresh flavour of aniseed and celery means that Florence Fennel, Preludio tastes as good as it looks.

Growing instructions:
Make successive sowings from April to July. Thin seedlings to 20 centimetres apart and harvest bulbs when 8 – 10 centimetres across. Sowings made after June are less likely to bolt.

Cooking:
Delicious sliced raw in salads. Or bake with creme fraiche and serve with fish. Use the leaves as an alternative to the herb fennel.
