Caraway
$3.99
Carum Carvi. In the same botanical family as the carrot, the Apiaceae, caraway is the aroma that gives rye bread its unique taste. We consume the root, but also the leaves, flowers and seeds. Its white flower umbels attract pollinating insects. Sow directly in the garden for best results.
