Herbs

Herbs generally come from temperate countries and consist mainly of leaves and stems of green plants, which can be used to enhance the aroma and flavor of dishes. Spices have the same function, but often come from countries with a subtropical or tropical climate and can consist of other plant parts such as flower buds, pods, bark or roots. Source: Wikipedia
