Seeds quantity may vary — could be more or less than stated. Open carefully to avoid losing seeds. Store away from direct sunlight and moisture until ready to plant.
Isolation Tip
Keep fennel well away from dill and most brassicas — it suppresses the growth of many neighbouring plants. Best grown in a dedicated spot away from the main vegetable garden. Harvest saunf seeds when they turn grey-green and fragrant, before they drop.

Fennel (Saunf) Herb Seeds – Aromatic Culinary & Medicinal Herb

Grow Fennel (Saunf) — a tall, aromatic herb with a distinctive anise-liquorice fragrance. All parts are usable: feathery fronds for garnishing fish and salads, seeds (saunf) as a digestive spice after meals, and stems for flavouring stocks. Pakistan’s most important digestive herb. Easy to grow in Pakistan’s cool and warm seasons. Do not plant near dill — they cross-pollinate and compromise both crops’ seed quality.

Harvest the anise-scented seeds (saunf) when seed heads turn brown. NOTE: do NOT plant fennel near dill — they cross-pollinate.
