I like all varieties of Dill and they are all easily started from seed. Fernleaf is just a more compact variety. All the dill varieties taste the same to me.
Dill is an easy to grow herb with many uses.
Dill (Anethum graveolens) is a larval host plant for the Black Swallowtail butterfly. In addition, dill attracts a variety of beneficial insects to the garden, including lacewings, ladybugs, parasitic mini-wasps, and hoverflies. These beneficial insects feed on numerous common garden pests. Finally, dill reportedly helps to repel cabbage loopers, imported cabbage worms, and tomato hookworm.
