Fennel Florence
Foeniculum vulgare var. azoricum - A bulb-forming fennel prized for its crisp, sweet anise flavor and versatile culinary uses.

Sweet, crisp Florence fennel has long been a staple of Italian cooking and remains a classic and reliable vegetable-herb in the kitchen.
Key Uses: Roasting, salads, slaws, grilling and soups.
Growing conditions: Full sun, rich soil, consistent moisture.
Companion notes: Pairs well with cucumbers and leafy greens.
