According to the RHS:
Myrrhis is an aromatic herbaceous perennial with fern-like leaves and umbels of small white flowers in early summer, followed by aniseed-scented fruits.
M. odorata is an erect, aniseed-scented perennial with bright green, 2- to 3-pinnate leaves and white flowers in umbels, followed by spindle-shaped fruits.

I have this shrub growing in my front border by my back door. It's very sheltered there so. not only does it stay shrubby and green all year, but it's actually still flowering.
