I plan to have the Fennel all by itself based on similar information.
Ive been reading about Fennel, and appears plants do not like Fennel, besides Dill.
Not to mention it requires constant moist soil- bordering on being a cool weather crop, I'll put in a northern positioned spot near an old tree had been cut down due to its short lifespan. The soil appears nice and dark/fertile with worms and fungi. Dug in the spot with compost and some ferts.....
I'll use some rover cover or chicken wire to keep squirrels at bay ( hopefully)
