Description
Pure Indigenous Honey Everlasting Helichrysum Essential Oil is a natural product from a small, aromatic shrub with grey foliage and potent honey-scented summer flowers. The top of the leaves are grey and covered with small soft hairs, while the underneath and stems are covered with dense white woolly hairs. Its fragrant flowers attract pollinating insects and bees.
