Lovage is a tall, hardy perennial herb with glossy, dark green, celery-like leaves and thick, hollow stems. It can grow up to 6 feet tall and produces clusters of small yellow-green flowers in late spring to early summer, followed by aromatic seeds. All parts of the plant—leaves, stems, seeds, and roots—are edible and have a strong, savory flavor reminiscent of celery with a hint of parsley and anise. Lovage is used to season soups, stews, salads, and broths, and its seeds are often used as a spice similar to celery seed.
Varieties: Levisticum officinale (Common Lovage)

Coriander
Coriander is a spice which is a member of the parsley family. The leaves of the plant are also commonly called cilantro, which comes from the Spanish word for coriander, or Chinese parsley. It has a penetrating odor and flavor.
Coriander roots also appear in culinary use as a pungent addition to curries. It is best used fresh, added just before food has finished cooking as it is sensitive to heat and loses aroma. Its seeds are used in curries and many other types of dishes, including pickled foods and some aromatic alcohols like gin. Cilantro is most often associated with Mexican or Asian foods. It is most commonly used in salsa, fish and chicken dishes. Spice up meat dishes, garnish your fish… coriander is the jewel in the crown, adding spice to your life.

Red Basil
Red Basil is a striking variety of basil distinguished by its deep burgundy to purple-red leaves and spicy-sweet aroma. It grows as a compact annual herb with glossy foliage and small pink to purple flowers that appear in mid to late summer. The flavor is similar to sweet basil but slightly more intense, with notes of clove and anise. Red basil adds both color and taste to salads, pastas, vinegars, and garnishes, and its vibrant leaves are often used decoratively in culinary presentations.
Varieties: Red Rubin, Dark Opal, and Purple Ruffles.
Sage
Sage is also one of the few herbs that, even as its leaves grow larger, the flavor intensifies. Unlike many herbs, sage leaves are still delicious after the plant flowers. Leaves are used in fish, pork, and poultry dishes. Also with vegetables and in sausages.
