Title: Florence Fennel - Gone to seed
Post by: reddyreddy on September 25, 2009, 13:50:04
I have had lots of yummy fennel this year but the last 2 of my crop got left behind and are now ENORMOUS with huge ferny ends. I'm thinking of letting them seed to collect for next year but have never done it before. Tips please!!  :-*
