''Ligusticum scoticum'', known as Scots lovage,〔 or Scottish licorice-root, is a perennial plant of the family Umbelliferae (Apiaceae) found near the coasts of northern Europe and north-eastern North America. It grows up to tall and is found in rock crevices and cliff-top grassland. It is closely related to, and possibly conspecific with, ''Ligusticum hultenii'' from the coast of the northern Pacific Ocean. The plant is edible, with a flavour resembling parsley or celery. ==Description== ''Ligusticum scoticum'' is a herbaceous perennial plant which typically grows tall. It has triangular, twice-ternate leaves, long, with each lobe long. The edges of the leaves may be toothed, lobed or serrated, and are typically either a paler green or magenta.〔 The stem branches infrequently, and bears 2–5 inflorescences, each of which is a compound umbel in diameter.〔 There are typically 8–12 rays in both the primary and secondary umbels. Each individual flower is around in diameter and greenish-white in colour.〔 The fruit are long, with five prominent ridges on each carpel.〔 ''Ligusticum scoticum'' tastes and smells like parsley〔 or celery, and was formerly widely eaten in western Britain, both for nutrition and to combat scurvy.〔
