Essential Oils from Wise Weeds

The essential oils of herbs contain their concentrated energies. An essential oil usually bears the aroma or flavor of a plant, although the intensity of the scent may be intense compared to what you're used to the plant itself smelling like. Essential oils are volatile. This means they evaporate rapidly at room temperature, whereas fixed oils, such as vegetable or motor oils, are more stable.
The oils themselves are found in various plant parts. Peppermint, patchouli, basil and geranium oils are derived from their leaves and stems. Clove oil comes from flower buds. Jasmine, rose and tuberose oils are derived from the open flowers. Essential oils are also derived from the seeds, wood, bark, roots, needles and skins of various plants.
In addition to using essential oils through inhalation of their scents—through tea-light diffusers, candles, or potpourri pots, electric diffusers, or in baths, one can also apply many diluted essential oils directly on the skin through massage.
Because essential oils are so concentrated, it is usually best to dilute (almost always) them with a neutral carrier oil. Remember, even such oils as lavender, tea tree, sandalwood and rose should be diluted before use on the skin to avoid possible sensitization.

Our Pure, Undiluted, Essential Oils come in convenient 15-ml (1/2 fl. oz.) and 5-ml (1/6 fl. oz.) dropper bottles. Prices and availability of pure essential oils may fluctuate according to crop and market conditions.

mulch and other natural soil amendments, where applicable.
