Description
This flower is the from the Ylang Ylang tree, a tropical tree from Indonesia. The flowers from these trees are prized for their scent and have been used in perfumes, such as Channel No. 5, for years. Oil from the flowers is used in aromatherapy and is used in some areas as a medicinal plant and is considered an aphrodisiac. Oil from the flower is also used in Madagascar as a flavoring for ice cream. This tree is in my yard and the scent of its flowers wafts throughout the day.
