Fennel, 'Finale'
Fennel, 'Finale'
(Foeniculum vulgare) One of our favorite vegetables, we are sad to see much of the fennel breeding veering towards hybrids. Swiss bred “Finale” continues to impress us as a production variety with the stoutest and most uniform bulbs we’ve seen thus far in an OP. Heavy, sweet bulbs with good greens and excellent bolt resistance. Eaten raw, roasted, in soups and pasta...Just divine!
