Essential Oil Summary

Plant Summary

The rough blue sage, Salvia chamelaeagnea, is a beautiful and aromatic sage that grows wild in the south western Cape of South Africa. It has bright green leaves and flowers that range from blue to white, attracting bees and other pollinators. This evergreen shrub has medicinal uses for coughs, colds and digestive problems, and can be brewed as a tea. It is easy to grow in full sun, well-drained soil and regular water, and can be propagated from seed or cuttings. Salvia chamelaeagnea is a great addition to any garden, providing colour, fragrance and texture.

Creating with Essential Oils

Essential oils are also known as volatile oils. Essential oils are extracted from aromatic plants by steam distillation, resulting in a very concentrated herbal preparation. Essential oils are not safe to ingest but can be safely used in diffusers or topical first-aid and for cosmetic preparations like creams, shampoos, massage oils, and wound balms. As a guide use 1-4 drops in an essential oil burner, and 1 drop in 5mls carrier oil or a 1% concentration in topical preparations. Keep safely out of reach of children and animals.
