A note from Roshani Kothari, friend of the farm, worksharer and photographer.
It was great to see everyone on Saturday! I also enjoyed trying your tasty creations at the potluck.
Here are some photos from the flowering dill. I will post some more photos soon.
I live in Canberra, Australia. I recently dug up my herb garden so that I could plant my spring herbs and noticed that a plant, looking very similar to the pictures I've seen of dill began growing. At first I thought it was flat Italian parsley as the leaves at the bottom of the plant were flat and serrated. Then as the plant grew taller (currently about a foot in height) the leaves splayed to thin spikey leaves (like dill). The only thing is, all of the dill pictures that I've seen have yellow flowers and the flowers on my plant are a pale pink (yet small and pretty like the yellow dill flowers I've seen). Could this be a variety of dill or is it something else entirely?
You comments would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you.
Leesa.
