Anise

Pimpinella anisum

Mild licorice flavor from this annual.  Our tradition of serving cake at the end of a wedding came from the Romans who used the seeds to flavor cake known as mustaceoe.

Growing information: Plant directly in average, well-drained soil after the danger of frost has passed.  Prefers full sun.  Sets small white flowers in mid-summer with seeds ripening later in August and September.
