Common names: Roman Licorice Root, Russian Licorice, German Licorice
Scientific name:
Glycyrrhiza echinata
Family: Fabaceae

Plant history & use:

Characteristic of Roman Licorice Root is:

  • Originally from southern Europe and parts of Asia.
  • Has a long history as a medicinal plant and is used as a sweet treat.
  • Used to produce Russian and German licorice.
  • Hardy down to -20 ºC.
  • Grows to a height of 1-2 meters.

    Licorice root has a long history both as a medicinal plant and as a sweet treat. Already in 4000 BC it was used by the Assyrians and since then licorice root has been used for, among other things, calming nerves, relieving colds, and fighting other viral infections. Licorice root was sold at pharmacies as medicine as late as the 1970s.

    One of the most prominent uses of licorice root by our ancestors was chewing the root to keep teeth clean and healthy. This was done because the substance glycyrrhizin found in the roots has antibacterial properties. It is also the substance that gives the sweet taste. However, glycyrrhizin is not metabolized in our bodies and can therefore, just like Stevia (Stevia rebaudiana), be used as a blood sugar-friendly substitute for sugar.

    The root can be shredded and made into tea. You can also make a refreshing drink served with ice. In Mongolia, the leaves of licorice root are used as a substitute for regular Tea (Camellia sinensis).

    The root can also be ground/crushed to cook your own licorice. Mix with sugar/syrup, flour, and anise in a pot and bring to a boil.

    Licorice root is also often used together with anise to flavor alcoholic beverages.

    Cultivation:

    Licorice root grows naturally in southern Europe and parts of Asia.

    The Roman Licorice Root is hardy down to -20 ºC. In most parts of Sweden, it can be grown outdoors year-round. To protect the plant during winter, cover the base with twigs, leaves, straw, or similar. By winter covering your plant, it is possible to create a place where it thrives even if your growing region lies outside its stated growing zone.

    Licorice root can also be grown in a wide pot, placed outdoors during the warmer months and indoors during the colder months.

    In Sweden, it can be grown both in pots and in open ground but in the latter case must be winter covered with e.g. twigs, leaves, or straw.

    The roots, which are the part used for consumption, grow to meter lengths so a large pot is recommended for pot cultivation. It takes about 3 years for licorice root to be ready for harvest and during that time it grows into a fairly large bush.

    Licorice root thrives best in well-drained soil and locations with full sun.

    Sowing:

    The seeds can be sown outdoors directly in open ground when the soil temperature is above 15 ºC. You can also start seedlings indoors throughout the year. Place in a bright window.

    Soak the seeds for 1 day before sowing. Cover the seeds with a thin layer of soil and keep the sowing moist.

    Characteristics:

    Lifespan: Perennial
    Growing site: sun
    Height: 1-2 m
    Germination time: 1-3 months
    Growing zone: 1-3

    Bought in multiple colors! Fantastic material
    Size: X-Large, Color: Light Green, Size: X-Large, Color: Light Green
    I ordered this button-up for an upcoming beach vacation, and I’m honestly so impressed with the quality and feel of it. Right out of the package, the material felt soft, breathable, and exactly what you want when you know you’ll be spending long hours in the sun and heat. It’s incredibly lightweight without feeling cheap or flimsy, which was one of my biggest concerns when ordering. What I really love is how well it helps keep you cool. The fabric allows for great airflow, so you don’t feel like you’re overheating or sweating through it like you might with heavier shirts. Even just trying it on, I could tell it’s going to be perfect for hot, humid weather. The fit is also spot-on—not too tight, not too baggy—giving it a clean, relaxed look that works great for both casual outings and slightly nicer dinners by the beach. Overall, this shirt checks all the boxes: comfortable, breathable, stylish, and ideal for vacation wear. Already grabbing a few more colors

    Slim but comfortable sizing looks upscale, wrinkle free from the dryer
    Size: Medium, Color: Denim Blue
    This is a very nice upscale looking shirt. It has great styling that is not over-sized. My husband normally wears a medium or large depending on the cut/style. He got a medium in this size and it is a perfect, comfortable fit. It arrived with some creases in the material from being folded in the packaging but it came out beautifully from the dryer. I'm happy he has a casual but nice shirt to wear when he takes me out to dinner!

    Nice and comfy, light duty and feel great.
    Size: X-Large, Color: Light Green
    What they may lack in "durability" i.e. very light and thin = not going to last all that long, they make up for in fit [yes even for wide shoulders], comfort and style. If you want them to last, suggest a gentle cycle and just take ot easy on them. They are light, thin, and airy. Nice summer shirt.

    A true vacation find!
    Size: Medium, Color: Light Green
    Really nice choice. Got it for my husband and he really liked the style. I loved how it fit on him and the lightness of the fabric. Great for hot, sunny weathered days, or warm nights. A true vacation find. Both comfy and stylish. He would have preferred it be 100% cotton, but I think he didn't really mind after steaming it. He commented on the color too. A beautiful sage green!

    Well made, comfortable and flattering
    Size: 3X-Large, Color: Light Green
    Nice material. I ordered the 3XL because my hubby has a big belly. It fit him well and was slimming. He wore it as a guest to an outdoor wedding. He looked nice and was comfortable all night.
