ROSEMARY

Rosemary is a hardy evergreen herb popular in Mediterranean cuisine. Since ancient times it has been hailed for its medicinal properties with effectiveness for treating muscle pain, boosting the immune system, and improving memory. Even as recently as 2017, sales of rosemary oil skyrocketed amongst students because of its perceived memory benefit.

In the Middle Ages, rosemary was associated with wedding ceremonies. The bride would wear a rosemary headpiece and the groom and wedding guests would all wear a sprig of rosemary. An herbaceous love charm!
