Lovage is a bold, aromatic perennial herb treasured for its tall stature, vibrant green foliage, and intensely savory, celery-like flavor. Blooming in early to mid-summer with airy yellow flower umbels, this striking plant adds height, texture, and old-world charm to herb gardens and cottage landscapes. With its robust culinary presence and long history in traditional herbalism, Lovage is both ornamental and highly functional — a powerhouse perennial for gardeners who value flavor and wellness.
Wildlife Benefits: Lovage’s nectar-rich flower clusters attract bees, butterflies, and beneficial insects, contributing to a thriving and balanced garden ecosystem. Its tall structure also offers light shelter for pollinators during peak summer bloom.
Medicinal Benefits: Traditionally used to support digestion and urinary health, Lovage has been valued for its warming, stimulating properties. The leaves and seeds are often brewed into teas or added to broths to aid digestion, while the roots have historically been used in tonics and herbal preparations.
Native Status: Native to Southern Europe, Lovage adapts well to temperate climates and grows beautifully in Georgia gardens with proper moisture and care.
Pollinator Friendliness: With its umbrella-like blooms, Lovage is a magnet for pollinators and beneficial predatory insects, helping support biodiversity in herb and perennial beds.
Height: 4–6 feet
Spacing: 18–24 inches
Sun/Shade: Full Sun to Partial Shade
How to Grow: Lovage thrives in rich, well-drained soil with consistent moisture. Amend soil with compost before planting for best results. It appreciates afternoon shade in hot Southern summers and benefits from mulching to retain moisture. Harvest leaves regularly to encourage fresh growth, and allow some flowers to mature if collecting seed.
Add bold height, culinary richness, and time-honored herbal value to your garden with Lovage — a resilient perennial that blends structure, flavor, and wellness in one commanding plant.
Available in 2.5 inch pots
