Rosemary
Rosmarinus officinalis
Why We Love It:
Rosemary has been used throughout history for memory support and has long been a symbol of mental concentration. Rosemary is also commonly used to support hair growth and healthy circulation. It is often used as a preservative and can be found in many cosmetics to help promote a longer shelf life.
What It Looks Like:
Rosemary is native to southern Europe and grows in warm, sunny conditions with well-drained soil. This perennial shrub can grow up to six feet tall with pine needle-like leaves and tiny purple flowers. Ros, meaning dew, and marinus meaning sea, has led to the nickname “dew of the sea”.
