deltamiss

This has been the rainiest summer since I have lived in North Carolina. Perhaps that is the reason one of the herbs hasn't done so well.

I've tried growing dill three different times with no luck at all. Today on Barefoot Contessa (Food Network), Ina Garten visited a magnificent acre-covering herb garden. The dill there was HUGE and FULL. P. Allen Smith (a Southern gardening guru) has videos of his potted dill so large you can't even see the pot! Every website says dill is one of the easiest herbs to grow and perfect for first time gardeners. Yeah, right.

Mine is barely a foot tall, skinny, practically leafless and producing scant two-inch flower heads. I give up. I just can't grow it. *pout*
