Dittany of Crete

$4.50

Dictamnus origanoides

Dittany of Crete is a very rare herb that only grows wild on the island of Crete, but is called for in a great many medieval recipes. Because of its rarity, beware unscrupulous merchants selling marjoram or oregano -- two related species -- as Dittany of Crete. The herb is used in love potions and baths as well as incenses and teas to induce psychic visions, particularly those related to love and future love.
