Glycyrrhiza glabra Liquorice Herb Plant

£7.95

Some Herbs may be too tall for our standard packaging and will be trimmed to fit. This will not be detrimental to the plant but will mean that these herbs will flower later in the year.

The Blister packs used to protect our beautiful herbs during transit are made from 100% recycled plastic and can be recycled kerbside.

Glycyrrhiza glabra (Liquorice)Herb in 9cm Pot

This culinary herb is a perennial native to the Mediterranean region and will grow taller each year. It will take approximately 3-4 years of growth for the roots to reach a good size for cultivation. Liquorice is an attractive addition to the herb garden in its own right, but also a wonderful herb to try to cook with your own cultivated Liquorice. 

Herb Usage

The root can be used raw or used as flavouring, or dried and used for chewing, you can also make a tea from the roots and the powdered root can also be used as a sweetener  for drinks.
