玫瑰天竺葵

I’ve already used a few leaves in homemade tea and the rose scent is surprisingly strong and soothing. The plant seems to love my sunny kitchen windowsill and is putting out new growth every few days. Exactly what I needed for my DIY skincare experiments.

I’ve been using a few leaves in my homemade toner and the rose scent is so authentic. Thrives in a sunny pot with almost no fuss—definitely buying another.

Potted it on my balcony and the velvety leaves are thriving in the full sun. The rose scent when I brush past it is lovely, though I wish the plant were a bit bushier out of the gate. Still, it's perfect for snipping a few leaves for my evening tea.
