The salad burnet, garden burnet, small burnet, or burnet, is a plant that is native to western, central and southern Europe; northwest Africa and southwest Western Asia; was brought to the New World with the first English colonists and has been naturalized in most of North America. As an herb, salad burnet offers a clean, cucumber-like flavor to sauces and salads when picked young and tender. The Salad Burnet herb has uniquely shaped leaves and forms a rounded bush with good leaf coverage. It produces pink-purple flowers which can be pinched out to encourage the production of fresh leaves.
