Coriander Seed

Coriander is a small annual plant that has been cultivated for thousands of years and is still grown in North and South America, Europe, and the Mediterranean area. The round, finely grooved stem grows 1 to 2 feet high from a thin, spindle-shaped root. The leaves are pinnately decompound, the lower ones cleft and lobed, the upper finely dissected. From June to August the white to reddish flowers appear flat, compound umbels of 3 to 5 rays. The brownish, globose seeds have a disagreeable smell until they ripen, when they take on their spicy aroma.
