The Sunday Reset - Inspired by Rosalina [Melaleuca ericifolia]

A guide to embracing the new week 

 

Sensual. Earthy. Soothing. 

Oh Rosalina! This divine plant is often called the Bush Lavender, thanks to its gentle lavender aroma with hints of eucalyptus. 

It looks as good as it smells, with creamy bottle-brush shaped flowers and clusters of bright, narrow leaves. We think of Rosalina as a virtuoso among oils: high performance every time.  


A ritual reset 

Melaleuca ericifolia thrives in sunny corners and doesn’t mind having wet feet, so if you have space, this fast-growing beauty is worth considering for your very own version of a physic garden. 


A nature reset   

We often forget that the hours after dark are when some of the best sounds, sights and smells in nature are happening. The lowing of the owl, the thrum and buzz of frogs and insects. A garden orb spider spinning her miraculous web. The vast cyclorama of stars. Take a moment to step into the theatre of the night.
