Dill Herb Seeds Packet
Dill (Anethum graveolens) is an aromatic annual herb belonging to the Apiaceae family. It is widely known for its feathery green leaves, yellow flowers, and distinctive flavor, making it a staple in culinary and medicinal applications. Dill is cultivated worldwide for its leaves (dill weed) and seeds, both of which are used in cooking and herbal medicine. Dill is a low-maintenance, fast-growing herb with culinary, medicinal, and garden benefits.

Standard paper seed packets are permeable to oxygen and moisture -- the two primary causes of seed degradation. Most paper-packaged seeds begin losing germination viability after approximately one year, contributing to significant garden-industry waste: packets purchased, not planted, expired, discarded. Shido Seeds are hermetically vacuum-sealed. The packet does not expire quietly in a drawer. It waits.
Every Shido seed packet is illustrated in the style of Japanese 1910s woodblock printing -- designed and drawn in-house by Chive, the Toronto ceramics studio that has been exhibiting at the Chelsea Flower Show in London every year and does not, as a matter of principle, sell to big-box retailers. Customers collect the packets as a series. This was not the original plan.
