1. Those two terms are often used side-by-side or interchangeably, but according to dictionaries everywhere herbs are plant leaves (fresh or dry) while apices are every other part of the plant including roots, stems, flowers, seeds and berries most commonly dry). This means that plants with edible leaves and seeds(like dill) are both herbs and spices.

English explorers named it allspice because its aroma has suggestive notes of cinnamon, cloves, and other recognizable spices.
