Description
Anise is a dainty annual that grows from 1 to 2 feet high. It has finely cut, serrated leaves and very small, whitish flowers in flat clusters. The leaves and seeds have a warm, sweet taste that suggests licorice.
Unlike other Piperaceae species, this one is easy to recognize due to the typical heart-shaped leaves with 7 - 8 nerves which end in one point at the base.
It is also easy to recognize for the strong licorice (anise) smell.
Because the bark of this tree retains moisture, in the Pacific Northwest its trunk and large branches are often covered with mosses, liverworts, and ferns (especially the licorice fern, Polypodium glycyrrhiza).
