It is a hardy, aromatic perennial herb to 1.8m tall. Fine clouds of feathery, bright green leaves, which have a sweet aniseed flavour are crowned with flat-topped, sulphur-yellow f lower heads in mid- to late summer, followed by aromatic seeds. All parts of the plant—leaves, stalks, flowers, seeds, and roots—are edible. Known for its distinct anise or liquorice flavour, the young fronds are ideal in salads and with fish, while seeds are used as a spice. Show more
