About Fennel

Fennel, scientifically known as *Foeniculum vulgare*, is a flowering plant species in the carrot family. Cultivated for its edible bulb, feathery leaves, and aromatic seeds, fennel is a versatile ingredient used in a variety of cuisines. The bulb has a mild, licorice-like flavor and a crisp texture, making it delicious both raw and cooked. Its leaves are often used as a herb, while the seeds are used as a spice and can even be chewed to freshen breath. The plant is a good source of vitamin C, potassium, and fiber, making it a nutritious addition to any diet.

Size Overview

Discover the typical size of a fennel bulb. A mature fennel bulb generally measures about 90mm (9.0cm) in width and 350mm (35.0cm) in height, making it roughly as tall as a standard water bottle and easily fitting within the palm of your hand. Understanding the average fennel size helps with meal planning, storage, and even when deciding how many plants to grow in your garden. Consider it a moderately sized vegetable, larger than a lemon but smaller than a typical head of cabbage.
