Bronze Fennel is a lovely plant that can grow quite tall and has foliage that looks like scented ferns and has a gorgeous burnished bronze colour.
The dark foliage in an arrangement looks quite stunning and helps the other flowers and colours in the arrangement stand out more.
Bees and hoverflies are drawn to the little yellow blooms that bloom in big umbels during the summertime. These blossoms are seductive to pollinating insects.
It is very easy for it to produce new plants from its own seeds, so if you do not want any more of them, you should remove the seed heads after the flowers have died.
- Seed Quantity: 250 Seeds

- Genus: Foeniculum vulgare
- Sow Seeds: Sow direct from mid-spring (March-May) into a warm sunny spot with free draining soil and thin out seedlings as they grow. Or sow earlier undercover into pots. Transplanting outside in mid-late spring with great care as fennel hates root disturbance.
- Plant Out: Transplanting outside in mid-late spring with great care as fennel hates root disturbance. Fennel will die back in the autumn before re-sprouting the following spring. Likes full sun and free-draining soil.

Seeds germinated within a week of sewing. Very pleased with the quality. The shop is lovely to navigate, prices are very reasonable and overall service is 100%.
I am definitely a satisfied customer and have been back and bought more seeds
Love the seeds from Bishy B - great selection. Lovely packaging and fast delivery. Melanie is lovely - thank you
Excellent germination and such a good little company to buy from 😊
The seeds have germinated perfectly, first time with dahlias so very pleased 😀
All seeds are growing beautifully. I bought seeds from other BIG flower company, only 3 growing from 30. So I'll buy my seeds here in the future
My seed order was packed well and arrived swiftly..
Iv just planted the seeds out and I’m hopeful for a lovely display next year
Excellent seeds, speedy delivery
I have ordered many seeds from this website, the delivery is reasonable and so are the seeds. I get fantastic germination and am no expert. I have tried other seed companies and nothing compares. This is a very safe bet and one that you won’t regret.
Completely a beginner but they have germinated after a couple of days and seedlings seem to be coming along nicely, very healthy and happy little plants … seeds came in addition to sow a long package and all beautifully presented … will be a repeat customer
These were gorgeous . Presents for both my mum and daughter and they loved them! They smelt fabulous. Thank you 😊
I’ve made 3 orders with bishy barnabees cottage garden so far (spending between £20-30 each time) and every time the seeds have been dispatched quickly. For a small business getting my order within a week is excellent! Ive had amazing rate of germination on every species of seed I’ve sown. The young plants are all healthy and look likely to become healthy adult plants by summer. I’ve interacted with the owner on social media too and can honestly say she’s lovely!
Last year I grew lots of fantastic corncockle, but this will be the first time I've tried Bianca.
There's always so many amazing seeds/flowers to choose from at Bishybarnabees Cottage Garden. Delivered swiftly and hugely successful germination 🌱🥰🌱
Sowed the Dahlia Seeds last week - (in a suitable Pot on the Kitchen Window Sill - which serves as my greenhouse) the sturdy little Dahlia seeds were through in two days and are looking very healthy and happy! Obviously very fresh seeds in the packet.
The Sanctuary wax melts have a lovely spa fragrance that lasts for ages. Loved them so much I ordered more. I haven't tried the lemon and ginger yet. Excellent quality and service.
Beautifully packaged & illustrated. Will be planted next year and I’m confident they will germinate easily as Bishy Barnabee’s Cottage Garden Seeds are reliable.
