Herbs: Foeniculum vulgare, fennel, hara, anis


I had an interesting discussion among Facebook friends about the identification of this plant. Some saying it was dill, others saying it is Fennel, and a few says it is Rosemary!
Finally, today, I read Dr. Godofredo Stuart's excellent site and discovered that the photo closely matches with our unnamed herb, which tastes great like freshly ripe mangoes!
