Smyrnium olusatrum
''Smyrnium olusatrum'', common name Alexanders, is a cultivated flowering plant, belonging to the family Apiaceae (or Umbelliferae).〔Davidson, Alan, and Tom Jaine. ''The Oxford companion to food''. Oxford University Press, USA, 2006. 805. Print. Retrieved Aug. 09, 2010, from ()〕 It is also known as alisanders, horse parsley and smyrnium. It was known to Theophrastus (9.1) and Pliny the Elder (''N.H. 19.48).
==Description==
The plants are stout to 150 cm high, with a solid stem which becomes hollow with age. The leaves are bluntly toothed, the segments ternately divided the segments flat, not fleshy.〔Webb, D.A., Parnell, J. and Doogue, D. 1996. ''An Irish Flora.'' Dundalgan Press Ltd.Daldalk. ISBN 0-85221-131-7〕
Alexanders is native to the Mediterranean but is able to thrive farther north.〔 The flowers are yellow-green in colour, and its fruits are black. Alexanders is intermediate in flavor between celery and parsley.〔 It was once used in many dishes, either blanched,〔MM. Vilmorin-Andrieux; W.Robinson. 1885/undated.

(1920 edition in Internet Archive )〕 or not, but it has now been replaced by celery. It was also used as a medicinal herb. In the correct conditions, Alexanders will grow up to 120 to 150 cm tall.
It is now almost forgotten as a food source, although it still grows wild in many parts of Europe, including Britain.〔 It is common among the sites of medieval monastery gardens.
