Growing Your Dill Elephant

Direct sow your Dill Elephant seeds outdoors in early spring after the last frost, or in fall in milder climates. Choose a location that receives full sun and has well-drained soil.

Sow seeds at a shallow depth of 0.25 to 0.5 inches, spacing them about 2-4 inches apart. Maintain a soil temperature between 70-75°F for optimal germination, which typically occurs in 7-21 days.

Thin seedlings to 6-12 inches apart once they are established. Dill Elephant can reach a height of 3-4 feet. Water regularly, especially during dry periods, to ensure healthy growth and abundant foliage.

Harvest leaves as needed, and allow some plants to flower if you desire seeds for pickling or future planting.
