Variety description

10 August 2026

The Selma variety is a fast-growing plant valued for stable yields throughout the summer period and high culinary qualities. It possesses good resistance to bolting and forms large, developed bulbs.

In official registers, the variety is classified as a hybrid. There is a possibility of partial data mixing with the Selma Fino variety, which also belongs to vegetable fennel and is distinguished by a pronounced anise aroma with a growing period of about 80 days.
