Native to South America, lemon verbena (Aloysia citriodora) boasts a long history of culinary and medicinal use. Traditionally revered as the “Queen of the Aromatic Herbs”, lemon verbena was a staple in many South American cultures. Its leaves were brewed into soothing teas that aided digestion and helped alleviate colds and fevers. The bright, citrusy scent of lemon verbena made it a popular addition to perfumes and potpourri, gracing homes and gardens with its uplifting aroma for centuries.

Lemon verbena's vibrant lemon aroma offers more than just a delightful fragrance. Inhaling its invigorating scent is known to have calming and uplifting properties, helping to ease stress and promote relaxation. Traditionally, it has been used as a natural remedy to support digestion and soothe minor aches and pains. Some studies have even suggested that lemon verbena may possess anti-inflammatory properties, potentially contributing to overall well-being.
