ANISE "Pimpinella Anisum" 250 Seeds Anise has finely cut, feathery leaves topped with long stems of white umbel flowers. The licorice flavoured seeds are added to breads, cakes and desserts, or made into a tea that is used medicinally for asthma and bronchitis. Once the plant is established the young leaves can be used as an addition to soups and salads. Pimpinella anisum is an annual member of the parsley family, and it shouldn't be confused with the Chinese spice, star anise, which grows on a tree. Pimpinella anisum seeds are small and grey-brown. In India, ground aniseed is added to curry powder, and the whole seeds are chewed to freshen the breath after meals. Sow outdoors in late spring, or start indoors in good compost from early April. Thin to 9" apart. Ensure these are planted in a sheltered position in full sun. To harvest, when threshed out, the seeds may be easily dried in trays, in a current of air in half-shade, out-of-doors, or by moderate heat. When dry, they are greyish brown, ovate, hairy, about one-fifth of an inch long. The taste should be sweet and spicy, and the odour aromatic and agreeable. As one of the few DEFRA registered and inspected sellers on eBay, you can be assured of hand selected seeds of the highest quality and purity, well packaged to ensure they reach you in perfect condition.

Shipment
Germination IMPORTANT - PLEASE READ CAREFULLY - Please note seed is a live product which depends on many important related grower skills such as proper planting time, seed depth, type of soil, watering, proper use of fertilizers, weed controls, fungicides, insecticides, disease free soil, and reasonable weather conditions during the growing period. Germination is affected by such factors as temperature, moisture content, light intensity and contamination of planting media. Although we do everything possible to get seeds to you in the best possible condition far exceeding legal requirements and will provide as much help as possible, these factors are totally outside of our control and once you receive the seeds its over to you. Consequently, we can take no responsibility for the suitability to your local conditions of any variety offered, the indicative cultivation advice provided or ultimately the varieties performance. As such you should seek local advice to carefully ensure your local conditions and the time of season are appropriate to the variety purchased.
Finally thank you for looking and we hope you enjoy looking through the extensive varieties we have on offer, if you need anything clarified please do not hesitate to ask. Rgds Bob & Kerrie
