Anise, a flowering annual originating in Asia and the Mediterranean, is often used for its seeds that are fennel-like in taste and possess a strong aroma. Various parts of the plant may be used, however, and some people use the stem and oils from the plant as well as the seeds. Anise flavoring can be found in various candies, desserts, breads, sausages, and drinks such as herbal tea. The anise plant can grow up to 4 feet tall, and produces white flowers and lacy leaves. You can grow it in the garden as well as in containers.
