Description

Also known as English Mace (but not to be confused with the spice of the same name, which is the outer covering of the nutmeg). This herb is little known and not much used nowadays; in fact, it's a bit of a mystery all round. Some claim it was discovered in Switzerland in 1798, while others believe it to be a native of Italy and Spain, that was once used in England as a strewing herb. Either way, it's definitely due a revival!
