About Illicium Anisatum (Japon Anasonu)
Illicium anisatum, with common names Japanese star anise, Aniseed tree, and sacred Anise tree, known in Japan as Shikimi, is a tree closely related to the Chinese star anise. Since it is highly toxic, the fruit is not edible; instead, the dried and powdered leaves are burned as incense in Japan.
