Anise
Growing Anise
Anise is an aromatic herb prized for its strong licorice-like flavor and versatile culinary use. Plants develop a graceful growth habit similar to dill while producing flavorful foliage and seeds traditionally used in a wide variety of recipes and beverages.
Sow Anise directly in the garden about ¼ inch deep and space plants 6 to 12 inches apart. Grow in full sun. This heat-tolerant herb is also well suited to containers.
Ready to begin harvesting in about 120 days, gather leaves or stems as needed once plants are established and allow seed heads to mature when growing for seed.
Sweetly aromatic and distinctive, Anise is excellent for teas, baked goods, seasoning blends, drying, and everyday cooking.
