Dill has a significant amount of vitamin A and C, as well as trace amounts of folate, iron and manganese.

The health benefits of Dill include its ability to boost digestion, as well as provide relief from insomnia, hiccups, diarrhea, dysentery, menstrual disorders, respiratory disorders, and various types of cancers. It is also good for oral care and can be a powerful boost for your immune system.

Dill prefers a cooler spot in your kitchen bench and no direct sunlight. Water little but often, if required, when the surface of the compost is dry to the touch. As Dill is a natural rosette forming plant, it tends to collapse when taken out of its sleeve.

Fresh finely cut Dill leaves is best as it loses its flavour rapidly if dried.
