HOW TO GROW
Sowing: Since anise does not take well to transplanting, it should either be direct sown or grown as a container plant. When the soil reaches a temperature of 68 degrees F, plant the seeds in full sun and well drained soil, 1/4" deep and 12-15" apart in rows 2' apart. For companion planting benefits, plant anise with coriander; this improves the germination and growth of the anise.
Growing: Anise needs little attention once established. Keep the ground weed free, and water the plants if the soil dries out completely.
Harvesting: Harvest fresh leaves and flowers as needed. For drying, cut the entire plant before it flowers and hang it upside down to dry.
Seed Saving: Harvest the seed heads individually as soon as they begin to turn brown, and spread them out to dry in a protected location out of direct sunlight. Thresh out the seeds by rubbing or shaking the heads, and remove as much chaff as possible. Store the anise seeds in a cool, dry place.

The best of the best
The seeds that I have received from Everwilde are the best I've ever purchased. First, the foil packaging is not only beautiful, it keeps moisture from the seeds. The instructions are succinct, but thorough. The illustrated instrunctions are the same. A photo of the plant is on every package I've received. My only critique (as a graphic designer) is that yellow-colored type is one of the hardest to read. All caps is also harder to read than traditional upper/lower case usage. This critiques are trivial compared with the outstanding packaging. Finally, I love the Bible verse on the package. I haven't used the seeds yet, so I can't speak about them. But the care in creating outstanding packaging leads me to believe the seeds will be remarkable too. I highly recommend this company that seems to be the cream of the crop in plant seeds.
