Anise is an old-world annual herb grown for its feathery foliage, delicate white flower umbels, and sweet licorice-scented seed. The seeds have long been used in breads, cookies, teas, candies, and traditional household herb blends, bringing a warm aromatic note that feels both old-fashioned and bright.

Plants are light and graceful in the garden, attracting beneficial insects when in bloom. Let the seed heads ripen and dry on the plant, then gather them for the pantry—a small harvest with a fragrance that fills the room.

Every order is packed with care by our small team in Pennsylvania and typically ships within 2–3 business days—often by the next business day. We ship throughout the United States using USPS and UPS.

Start seed indoors 6-8 weeks before transplanting into the garden. Transplant to the garden after your average last frost date. Or, plant seeds directly into the garden after your average last frost date. Anise needs about 120 days to reach full maturity, so plant early enough in the season. Seeds can be harvested once the plant reaches maturity and the seeds turn gray. The fresh leaves can be used for flavoring and garnishing.
