Fennel seeds come from the fennel plant (Foeniculum vulgare), a flowering perennial herb belonging to the carrot family (Apiaceae). Native to the Mediterranean region, fennel has been cultivated worldwide for its flavorful seeds, bulb, leaves, and stems. The plant grows to about 3-5 feet tall with feathery leaves and bright yellow flowers that eventually produce the small, greenish-brown seeds.
