About Dill
Dill self-seeds prolifically — plant it once and it will return year after year in most gardens.
Direct sow — dill does not transplant well. Let some plants go to seed for self-seeding next year. Harvest before flowering for best leaf flavour; harvest seeds once ripe. Good companion for tomatoes.
Gardening in Oregon
Oregon has dramatically different climates west and east of the Cascades. The Willamette Valley is mild and productive year-round (Zone 8a-8b); eastern Oregon is semi-arid and colder (Zone 5-6).
