Lavender and rosemary
The Scientific Garden is also home to lavender and rosemary plants, and their extracts help create the signature fragrance of A Single Shampoo. Lavender comes from the Mediterranean region, and has been used to cleanse the body since the time of ancient Rome. The name rosemary comes from two Latin words: ros and maris, that together mean "sea dew" and refer to the light blue hue of the flowers.
