Herb
In general use,
herbs are any plants used for food, flavoring, medicine, or perfume. Culinary use typically distinguishes herbs from
spices. Herbs refer to the leafy green parts of a plant (either fresh or dried), while a "
spice" is a product from another part of the plant (usually dried), including seeds, berries,
bark, roots and
fruits.
