Immortelle or lat. Helichrysum italicum Is a Mediterranean plant that grows on sunny rockeries, high to 60 cm, with narrow leaves, and yellow flowers.

In my garden, I have it in abundance, just like in all areas. When you picked Immortelle flowers and mixed them with lavender flowers, you get a beautiful bouquet that is long-lasting and decorates your home. My bouquet lasts two years already.

Like its name says “immortelle” is giving you timeless beauty.
Immortelle needs to be distilled within 24 hours after harvesting. It is flowering in summer. From about 750 kg fresh Immortelle you can get 1kg of essential oil distillates.
