Easy Grow Info
About This Dill
Suva (dill) is grown for its soft, feathery leaves and strong aroma, and in many Indian kitchens it’s used more like a leafy green than a finishing herb. The tender foliage cooks down beautifully into suva bhaji, dals, and simple vegetable dishes, adding warmth and depth rather than just a light garnish. Dukat is especially valued for its lush leaf production, giving you plenty to harvest for everyday cooking.
Fast-growing plants do well in cooler weather and adapt easily to containers and small garden spaces, making it simple to keep fresh suva close to the kitchen.
Why We Grow It
We grow Dukat dill because it behaves the way many Indian cooks expect suva to behave, as a leafy green you can harvest generously, not just a light herb used in small amounts. It grows quickly in California’s cooler seasons, produces soft, aromatic foliage, and makes it easy to bring fresh suva into everyday cooking straight from the garden.
