Caraway 
Carum carvi
Caraway has three things going for it: the roots are edible and eaten as a vegetable, the leaves and shoots are salad herbs, and the seeds are used for seasoning, often baked in breads and mixed in cheeses. Caraway resembles wild carrot or Queen Anne's lace with its feathery, delicate foliage and will grow only about 8 inches high the first year. A spring sowing will not produce a crop of seeds the first season, but a fall sowing can be harvested in June. Plants self-seed themselves easily. Sowing Information Caraway is a biennial, producing seeds the second year. Seed germinates easily, but seedlings are difficult to transplant. Sow the seed directly into the garden in rows from Apr. 15th to June 15th. Space the rows 16 in. apart. Caraway likes dry sandy soil in full sun. Space or thin two year old plants 12 in. apart.Our 2010 shipping season has ended for our plants. All plant orders placed now will ship in April 2011. We do, however, ship seeds year round.
