Cineole Rosemary

An emblematic plant of the Mediterranean scrubland, much used in cooking, its Latin name means Sea Rose. This shrub is resistant, particularly to sea spray, and grows on calcareous, arid soils. It has small, thick, needle-like leaves. It flowers almost all year round and offers us an essential oil with fresh and dynamic aromas.
