Good information… I am hoping to get some dill going too… I LOVE dill, but am having trouble growing it this year… and then there are all of the caterpillars/butterflies that like it and use up my plants! I really want some here for us to use. :) Thank you for the reminder of fall herbs. I will also try some others.
