250 Anise Seeds Culinary Garden Herb Pimpinella Anisum This herb is commonly confused with Star Anise. It has a similar flavor to Licorice, Fennel, and Star Anise, but is a different species. This is an aromatic herb that is often used for making an herbal tea as well as a component of several ethnic Mediterranean dishes. It is not as widely used in the Americas, but is worth a try - you might find a new favorite, especially if you like strong, bold flavors like Black Licorice.. One of the most ancient herbs, anise is native to Southern Europe and the Mediterranean. In ancient Palestine, anise was highly valued and used as a form of currency for payment of taxes. In the United States, anise has been grown since the fourteenth century. In England in 1305, anise was so popular as a spice or medicine that King Edward I put a tax on it to raise money to repair London Bridge. Anise seeds have a wide variety of medicinal uses and are rich in volatile oil, flavonoids and other important nutrients. The distinctive flavor of anise can be found in licorice as well as certain kinds of cookies, bread, sausage, and cheese; almost every culture has a special confection that contains this sweet herb.

Check Our Store For Many More Flowers, Fruit & Vegetables Sowing: Since anise does not take well to transplanting, it should either be direct sown or grown as a container plant. When the soil reaches a temperature of 68 degrees F, plant the seeds in full sun and well drained soil, 1/4" deep and 12-15" apart in rows 2' apart. For companion planting benefits, plant anise with coriander; this improves the germination and growth of the anise. Growing: Anise needs little attention once established. Keep the ground weed free, and water the plants if the soil dries out completely. Harvesting: Harvest fresh leaves and flowers as needed. For drying, cut the entire plant before it flowers and hang it upside down to dry.
