Explanatory note

This class includes spices, i.e. plants which in one of their components (rhizome, bark, fruits, berries, seeds, etc.) contain strongly flavoured and aromatic substances. For that reason they are used mainly as condiments, but have also applications in cosmetic and medicinal preparations. Most of these plants are perennial.
