38. - Lovage plants (Levisticum officinale) grow like weeds.
The young leaves of this perennial herb are ideal for adding to salads, soups, stews and potato dishes, while blanched shoots can be eaten as a vegetable, and the roots are edible as a cooked vegetable or raw in salads.
The stalks can be candied like angelica, while dried leaves can be used to make a tea.
