It said it was a herb because in botanical terms it's a herb. That's not unclear. Even if you confuse it with the culinary term, all you have to do is google "herb definition" and the one of the two definitions provided is:

any seed-bearing plant that does not have a woody stem and dies down to the ground after flowering.

And the example given is:

"the banana plant is the world's largest herb"
