Detailed Description
(Rosmarinus officinale) Rosemary, native to the Mediterranean, is an evergreen shrub in the mint family. The needle like leaves have been in recorded use since 500 bc for culinary purposes.

In culinary recipes the fresh and dried leaves of Rosemary can be found in a wide variety of dishes, including salads, soups, vegetables, meats, fish, eggs, dressings, breads and desserts.

Rosemary has been used as a symbol for remembrance (worn during weddings, war commemorations and funerals).

If pregnant, one should consult their doctor before ingesting rosemary in large quantities.

Externally Rosemary can be used as a bath soak or used for its aromatic properties.

Rosemary Hair Oil
 Recipe from Natural Beauty at Home by Janice Cox

Rosemary is believed to stimulate hair growth.
2 Tbsp dried rosemary
½ cup olive oil

Mix together the rosemary and olive oil. Heat gently in the microwave (High for 2 minutes) or on the stove top, but do not boil.
Cool the mixture completely, and let sit for 2-3 days to allow the oil to absorb all of the essential oils from the rosemary.
Strain off all solids by pouring the mixture through a funnel lined with a coffee filter. Pour into a clean bottle. Use by massaging a small amount into your scalp after shampooing and before going to bed.
