$8.00
Keen foodies will likely have Asa-foetida on their herb shelf. (tastes like curried carrot) It is made from the carrot like root of this plant, but the giant carrot like leaves and two metre high flower spike make it a showy ornamental. Its from a freezing part of the world(Afghanistan) so tends to have a rush of growth and flowering from spring, retiring early in autumn. 2m
