Teddy
Dill Seed
Product ID: 3293
For field, container, and hydroponic production.
Productive slow-bolting dill with full, dense leaf shape. Compact spirals of thick leaflets surround each stem, unlike in most dill varieties, which have finer and more delicate leaves. Compared to Fernleaf, the standard for container production, Teddy is faster growing, more productive, and has a fuller plant habit with vibrant green leaves. Only slightly faster to bolt than Fernleaf. Excellent for full-size and baby-leaf production. Avg. 20,000 seeds/oz. Packet: 200 seeds.
