When to plant fennel seeds in NZ?

Fennel seeds thrive when planted in early spring or early autumn in New Zealand. Choose a sunny location with well-draining soil. Start seeds indoors before transplanting to ensure optimal conditions for germination and a longer growing season.


Is fennel easy to grow from seed?

Growing fennel from seed is relatively straightforward, making it suitable for both beginner and experienced gardeners. Provide consistent moisture to your fennel seeds and avoid disturbing the roots once seedlings emerge. Fennel prefers full sun and well-drained soil for robust growth and development. Consult the Kings Seeds online product description for specific growing instructions for different fennel varieties to ensure success. 


Do fennel plants grow back every year?

Fennel is a perennial plant but if harvested for the bulb the plant will not grow back. If you are growing a leaf fennel variety as you are harvesting the leaf above the growing point the plant can grow back each year if properly cared for. In milder climates, fennel plants used as a herb may remain evergreen, while in colder regions, they may die back in winter and regrow from the roots in spring. Regular pruning helps maintain fennel plant health and productivity, so you can enjoy your fennel plants year after year.
