Fennel Is...
a vegetable that somewhat resembles celery, but that has leaves like dill and smells like anise. It has a subtle anise flavour. The bulb is white and is the part most people cook with. The stems look a lot like celery, and I eat them like I would celery sticks. The leaves can be used to flavour or garnish a dish, just as you would use dill.
Fennel is sometimes sold in stores as "anise."
