Yes, cardamom is a spice. A spice is plant matter (usually dried) used to season or flavour food.

The spice cardamom is the dried seed pod of the plant and has two varieties.

In Indian cooking, both green (called "green") and mature (called "black") are used. Oftentimes these are used whole or crushed.

In western cooking, only the ground seeds contained within the green pods are used.

Can a person taking warfarin use green cardamon powder in cooking?

I think so - it isn't one of the common things that you're told not to take whilst on warfarin. Plus the amount of green cardamon powder that you'll actually be ingesting is fairly minimal; it's a fairly pungent spice so you will not need to use much. However, bear in mind that whilst on warfarin it is important not to deviate from your 'usual' diet too much.
