Lovage (Levisticum officinale) potted plant, organic

Family:  Carrot (Apiaceae)

Hardy to Zones 3 to 9

Native to Europe.  Herbaceous perennial flowering from 4 to 7 feet tall.  Traditional usage (TWM): carminative.  The leaf stems and leaves, harvested fresh and chopped, make an agreeably aromatic potherb, especially nice to flavor potato-leek soup.  Like celery on the wild side.  The aerial parts may be dried and rubbed through a screen to create seasoning flakes that may be used throughout the winter. The plant prefers full sun to part shade and moist garden soils.   Space plants  2 feet apart.
