Rose blossom smells delicately aromatic and contains important tannins as well as essential oils.

Hibiscus
Hibiscus, also known as mallow, was already being used in Greece thousands of years ago as a medicinal plant – thus earning its Greek name Althaea, which translates as ‘I cure’. This perennial plant flowers from June to August and produces sweet, box-like fruits.

Lavender
You can smell the invigorating scent of lavender anywhere you go in the Mediterranean. The medicinal plant, which belongs to the labiate family, is native to these regions – even though it is now cultivated all around the world for its wonderful, nutritious flowers. Lavender tastes aromatic, spicy and slightly bitter, and contains important essential oils.

Chamomile
At the end of the 16th century, the famous doctor and botanist, Hieronymus Bock identified chamomile with its pleasant scent as the ‘most commonly-used herb in medicine’.

Elderflowers
Hippocrates, the most famous doctor of ancient times, once described elderflower as a ‘medicinal cabinet’. Numerous nutrients, such as vitamin C and B, essential oils and citric acids make this slightly bitter-tasting shrub one of the world’s most popular medicinal plants.

It originates from the Malabar coast of India and it has an intensive spicy flavour, ranging from mildly spicy to spicy. Ancient traditional medicine of Ayurveda recommends black pepper not only for its spiciness, but also for its valuable properties as a medicinal plant.

Cloves are the flower buds of the clove tree and are mainly used in our part of the world as a spice in foods such as Lebkuchen (gingerbread) or red cabbage.
