Fennel Plant

Hannaho · 2022-02-11 08:39:10

I have fennel in a pot since last year. It outgrew the pot, and I transplanted it into a larger pot in my garden. The ends are turning brown, but the rest of the plant is fine. Do I need to cut it back. Any advice on care of fennel plants would be welcome. New to vegetable gardening.

Sinister music...if you plant a fennel in your garden it will increase and multiply and take over every inch of it, the paths, the gravel, the flower beds, everything. You don't have to care for it, it will more than effectively take care of itself!

Proper answer, it does tend to die back a bit/quite a lot during the winter. You can tidy it up a bit if you wish, but it will be fine.
