Oh Ivy... Why we love this weed

We love being ambassadors for weeds. These beautiful, ordinary native scents that Ireland is bursting with. We delight in celebrating them.

And it doesn't come much more common than Ivy.

Dark green leaves and clusters of fruit wrapping and twisting around trees, climbing over gates and clothing the walls of tumbledown cottages everywhere.

Essential oils Cumin, Neroli, Cedar, Rose, Davana, Orange, Patchouli. 

It's soft green freshness is often overlooked, and can be considered a pest (If you've ever tried to remove Ivy from a wall then you'll understand!) But we say it's a fantastic pollinator and provides shelter for so many creatures and birds. 

And we love it.

Take a bow, Ivy.

Have a lovely weekend,
