An All-America Selections winner, Antares is the first fennel ever selected for its exceptional flavour. Pure white, round bulbs are topped with dark green, fern-like foliage and offer a very sweet licorice-anise taste. Slow to bolt and resistant to tip burn, this variety provides reliable performance and high-quality harvests.

Mature Height:
18–24 in

12–18 in

Suitable Planting Locations:
Ideal for herb and vegetable gardens, raised beds, and garden beds in full sun with well-drained soil.

Planting Tip:
Most herbs prefer a sunny location with well-drained soil that is not too wet. Aim to plant where fennel receives at least 5 hours of direct sunlight each day. Herbs grow well in most soils but thrive in light, fertile soil enriched with organic matter and a moderate amount of fertilizer.
