Fenugreek (3.5" pot)
Annual. Widely used in Mediterranean, Middle-Eastern, and South Asian cuisines. Leaves have a bitter flavour raw, and a mildly sweet flavour when cooked. Seeds have a slightly sweet and nutty flavour, and can be ground and used as a spice. Fenugreek is commonly used to flavour potato, rice, and curry dishes, and mixes well with other aromatic herbs like turmeric, cumin, coriander and fennel. Dry leaves for long-term storage. As a legume, plants will fix nitrogen in the soil once full-grown, making them a useful companion for corn, cucumbers, and Brassicas. Plants grow well in poor soils and do not need fertilization.
Harvest: When 10” tall. Cut stems back to 1/3 size.
Plant Height: 24”
Plant Spacing: Does not matter.
