Helichrysum petiolare, the licorice-plant[2] or liquorice plant, is a species of flowering plant in the family Asteraceae. It is a subshrub native to the Cape Provinces of South Africa — where it is known as imphepho — and to Angola, Zambia, and Zimbabwe.[1] It is naturalized in parts of Portugal and the United States.[3] Growing to about 45 cm (18 in) high and 150 cm (59 in) broad, it is a trailing evergreen subshrub with furry grey-green leaves and small white flowers.[4] Other common names include silver-bush everlastingflower,[5]trailing dusty miller and kooigoed. The foliage has a faint licorice aroma,[6] but Helichrysum petiolare is not closely related to the true liquorice plant, Glycyrrhiza glabra.
