Star anise, also known as Chinese star anise, Staranise tree, Badiam, True star anise
Star anise thrives in environments that can replicate its native habitat, which is warm and moist. A key aspect of its care involves ensuring adequate moisture without waterlogging, requiring well-draining soil. Special care should be given to its light preferences, as star anise benefits from bright, indirect light but must be protected from direct sunlight to prevent leaf burn.
