Description

Fennel Seed is recognized in the pharmacopeias of almost all countries as a carminative, stimulant and aromatic. It is traditionally used in cases of flatulence, colic, indigestion, malassimilation, calming the nerves, arousing the appetite–a general, mild tonic. It is sometimes included with purgative herbs to allay their griping effects; in England, the well-known compound Liquorice Powder utilized Fennel for this purpose. It is there mixed with baking soda and simple syrup for Gripe Water, used to correct flatulence of infants (although we couldn’t recommend the use of the sodium bicarbonate). Fennel is official in the United States Pharmacopeia for its ability to mask or sweeten the taste of other medicines.

A biennial or perennial with finely cut feathery foliage. The finely grooved stems are upright, hollow and up to 5 feet tall, with thin, straight, finely-cut leaves. Flat clusters of compound umbels of yellow flowers grow at the end of the stems, above the foliage. The fruit consists of 2 joined carpels, taking an oblong form with ribs. It looks like dill but more coarse and taller. Both leaves and seeds have a licorice flavor. Found on dry banks, vacant lots, and fields. It is commonly cultivated.
