Harvesting frequently helps prolong the plant’s life. Once mature, prune the top third of the plant every 2 months, and take smaller fronds as needed. Remove flowers when they appear by pinching them to keep the plant focused on vegetative growth. To encourage bushier growth, harvest leaves from the top down.
Origin
Native to the eastern Mediterranean region and western Asia, Dill dates back as far as 3000 BC in Egyptian texts. The word comes from the Norse word dylia meaning to soothe or lull.
