Genuine Livingston® seeds — imported from the USA. Bred and selected in the United States and packed for The Garden by Chanan Din, Lahore. Non-GMO. Every lot is germination-tested here before it goes on sale.
Grow your own soya — Mammoth is the tall dill grown for both leaf and seed, reaching well over a metre with broad feathery foliage. The leaf goes into fish, raita, potatoes and pickles; the ripe seed heads are what flavour a jar of achaar.
We stock this variety from more than one American seed house. This listing is the Livingston® packet; the Ferry-Morse® version is listed separately.
Growing guide & FAQs
Growing guide for Pakistan
- When to sow: October to February in the plains. Dill runs to flower fast in heat, so the cool months are when you get leaf rather than seed heads.
- Sowing: Sow direct where it is to grow, 5 mm deep, and thin to 20–25 cm. It has a long taproot and resents transplanting.
- Position: Full sun and shelter. A tall dill in an open spot will lean over in the first strong wind.
- Water: Even moisture. Dry spells bring on bolting.
- Harvest: Cut the feathery leaves from the outside once the plant is 20 cm high. For seed, let the heads turn brown on the plant and cut them whole.
- Succession: Sow a short row every three weeks through the winter. One sowing gives you a few good weeks, not a season.
Frequently asked questions
Will this grow in a pot?
Yes, in a deep pot of at least 25 cm for the taproot, and somewhere sheltered so the plant does not lean over.
How many seeds are in the packet?
Enough for a home garden bed or a run of pots. Sow a few more than you need and keep the strongest seedlings.
Is the seed non-GMO?
Yes. Every variety in this range is non-GMO.
