This herb is a great plant, but NOT for the vegetable garden, as it will inhibit growth of some. It is a vigorous licorice-tasting perennial bush that can grow quite tall. The flavor is divine in meals from savory to sweet. Bulb, stalk & fronds are all edible! Grow the smaller bulb-type if you enjoy root vegetables, or let the tall one serve as a fragrant border. Plant seeds 3-4 inches apart.

Carrots

This favorite carrot seed is not wormy nor woody, and is a hearty grower apx 5-7" long!  To have the root part grow more than the top, a less nitrogen-rich, sandy-ish soil is best.

Carrot tops are edible too!!   sun/part shade
