The licorice plant! Its root is known by all as a condiment, especially in pastries and confectionery, for sweets, cakes, candies... due to its bittersweet and aniseed flavor.
Perennial herbaceous up to 1m. Oval, numerous, pale green leaves, accompanied by a large, spike-shaped purple-blue bloom. Elongated and oval fruit that contains the seeds. The root is the most famous part of this plant, which extends horizontally to continue growing. Very aromatic.
