lovage – Lovage Levisticum officinale

Lovage is a perennial plant that is easy to cultivate because of its hardy properties. It belongs to the same family as carrots, parsley, and dill. The dark-green leaves of the lovage plant resemble cilantro and Italian parsley in shape and color, and its stalks are often compared to celery stalks (in appearance and, to a lesser extent, in flavor). Lovage has a very strong odor and tastes warm and aromatic.
