Herb

Herb in general use, are plants with savory or aromatic properties that are used for flavoring and garnishing food, medicinal purposes, or for fragrances; excluding vegetables and other plants consumed for macronutrients. Culinary use typically distinguishes herbs from spices. Herbs generally refers to the leafy green or flowering parts of a plant , while spices are usually dried and produced from other parts of the plant, including seeds, bark, roots and fruits.
Herbs have a variety of uses including cullinary, medicinal and in some cases, spiritual. General usage of the term "herb" differs between culinary herbs and medicinal herbs; in medicinal or spiritual use , any parts of the plant might be considered as herbs, including leaves, roots, flowers, seeds, root bark, inner bark (and cambium ), resin and pericarp.

Definition
In botany, the term herb refers to a herbaceous plant, defined as a small, 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 growing season. Usually the term refers to perennials, although herbaceous plants can also be annuals (where the plant dies at the end of the growing season and grows back from seed next year), or biennials.

 Hydrangea macropola

 Winter-Flowering Witch-Hazel (Hamamelis)

 Senecio angulatus, a shrubby shrub (yellow-flowered) on the seashore.
In botany and ecology, a shrub is used to describe the particular physical structural or plant life-form of wood plants, which are less than 8 m (26 ft) high and are usually based contain or precipitated many arising him.  For example, a descriptive system widely adopted in Australia is based on structural features based on life-form, as well as the tallest layer or foliage cover of the dominant species.

 The following structural forms are classified 2–8 m (6.6–26.2 ft) high for bushes:

 Dense leaf cover (70-100%) - Close-bush
Mid-dense foliage (30–70%) - open-bushy
Sparse leaf cover (10-30%) - long bushy
Very short foliage cover (<10%) - long open bushy area
For bushes less than 2 m (6.6 ft), the following structural forms are classified:

 Dense foliage cover (70-100%) - Closed-heath or closed low shrub - (North America)
Middle-dense foliage cover (30–70%) - open-heath or mid-dense low shrubs- (northeast)
Sparse leaf cover (10-30%) - Low shrubbed land
Very little foliage cover (<10%) - less open shrubby
