It is showing it's age now so will probably start again this time. Only "pest"  has been the odd outbreak of aphids... again solved by cutting it all down to break the cycle..

Is that the same as bulb or Florence fennel? Once my Florence fennel starts to run to seed the bulbs get tough and after a while inedible. Would the bulbs overwinter and refresh and produce new edible growth?

saddad:
Florence or bulb fennel... the new growth is smaller after a cut back but you get more "bulbs" as a compensation...

Tiny Clanger:
I grew Marina del Choggia and Victor for the first time this season. Victor- very decorative but Marina tasted far better.

saddad:
Definite Choggia fan here...

Deb P:
They look very decorative and a good size too, will give them a go thank you!
