Productinformation

Laurus Nobilis originally comes from the Middle East. To the ancient Greeks, this plant was a symbol of wisdom and glory. The plant was often seen as a sign of victory. For this reason, Roman gods were often depicted with a laurel wreath on their heads. Nowadays, Laurus Nobilis grows in all countries around the Mediterranean Sea. The plant is mainly known for its smell. Besides being a good natural air freshener, the leaves are often used in numerous recipes. Laurus Nobilis blooms with white, star-shaped flowers during the summer. At the end of the summer, the plant produces round red fruits that later turn black. This Laurus Nobilis comes on a beautiful stem, which gives it a luxurious look.
