[[File:The Herb Garden - geograph.org.uk - 1629279.jpg|thumb|Herb garden at [[:en:Hardwick Hall|Hardwick Hall]], [[:en:Derbyshire|Derbyshire]], [[:en:England|England]], originally planted in the 1870s by Lady Louisa Egerton, recreated by the [[:en:National Trust|National Trust]], largely following the original design.]]
In [[botany]], the term herb refers to a [[herbaceous plant]], defined as a small, [[Spermatophyte|seed-bearing plant]] without a woody stem in which all aerial parts (i.e. above ground) die back to the ground at the end of each [[:en:growing season|growing season]]. Usually the term refers to [[Perennial plant|perennials]], although herbaceous plants can also be [[Annual plant|annuals]] (plants that die at the end of the growing season and grow back from seed next year), or [[Biennial plant|biennial]]s. This term is in contrast to [[shrub]]s and [[tree]]s which possess a woody stem. Shrubs and trees are also defined in terms of size, where shrubs are less than ten meters tall, and trees may grow over ten meters. The word herbaceous is derived from Latin ''herbāceus'' meaning "grassy", from ''herba'' "grass, herb".
