Lovage is an old English garden herb whose use dates from the fourteenth century. Lovage's properties are similar to closely related umbelliferous plants like angelica, carots,celery, and parsely. Lovage contains quercetin, which makes it a good garden remedy for allergies, respiratory problems, and is effective diuretic for treatment of urinary tract inflammation.

Plant these tall, leafy plants at the back of the garden where their 6 ft height will not be an issue. The leaves and seeds of this overgrown parsley-type plant are used for medicinal and culinary uses. Lovage is considered a "magic bullet" companion plant; much as borage helps protect almost all plants from pests, so lovage is thought to improve the health of almost all plants.

A member of the same family as dill, angelica, and parsley, the botanical name, Levisticum can be translated "from Liguria". The Romans brought lovage from the Ligurian coast of Italy to Britain. Lovage came to America with the English colonists and was brought over for both food and medicine. |
It is an herb of the Sun, under the sign Taurus.Half a dram at a time of the dried root in powder taken in wine, doth wonderfully warm a cold stomach, helps digestion, and consumes all raw and superfluous moisture therein. Nicholas Culpeper |
