5 BENEFICIAL BOTANICALS FOR HEALING
In Blooms We Trust
Some of the most commonly found non-CBD ingredients in our products are – you guessed it – flowers or flower-derived oils and essences.
Not only are they beautiful to look at, but flowers, herbs, and other plants contain potent medicinal extracts that can uplift + invigorate, calm + soothe, or simply add a delightful fragrance that will improve your mood and make you smile.
This month, we’ll be highlighting some of our favorite fleurs + breaking down just what makes them so desirable. Stick with us for a virtual walk through the garden at The Flower Pot!
