What is Lemon Myrtle Essential Oil?

Lemon myrtle trees are medium-sized with dark green, lance-shaped leaves that remain on the tree throughout the year. From summer to fall, creamy white flowers grow in clusters at the end of the branches.

The essential oil is steam distilled from the leaves of the tree. Although the leaves can be harvested year-round, it is best not to do so during the wet season. After harvesting, the leaves are distilled immediately to ensure the highest quality oil.
