The bulb can be enjoyed raw in salads or cooked by roasting, braising, or grilling, while the feathery leaves and aromatic seeds are also widely used in the kitchen. Plants thrive in rich, well drained soil and attract butterflies and other beneficial insects to the garden. Blanch the bulbs by mounding soil around their bases as they develop to produce tender, pale stems.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"566\" data-end=\"604\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-start=\"566\" data-end=\"604\"\u003eApproximately 120 seeds per packet\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"606\" data-end=\"765\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-start=\"606\" data-end=\"635\"\u003eWhen to Plant (Australia)\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr data-start=\"635\" data-end=\"638\"\u003eTropics: April to July\u003cbr data-start=\"660\" data-end=\"663\"\u003eSubtropics: March to August\u003cbr data-start=\"690\" data-end=\"693\"\u003eMild climates: Autumn and spring\u003cbr data-start=\"725\" data-end=\"728\" data-is-only-node=\"\"\u003eCold climates: Spring to early autumn\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"767\" data-end=\"1040\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-start=\"767\" data-end=\"788\"\u003ePlanting \/ Sowing\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr data-start=\"788\" data-end=\"791\"\u003eSow seed directly or raise seedlings, planting 5–10 mm deep in fertile, well drained soil in full sun.
