The legend of rosemary

Western folks have a myriad of romantic legends of rosemary.

迷迭香

The smell of rosemary is very rich. It is said that the ancient Hungarian queen liked to bathe in rosemary and the ancients believed it could enhance their memory. So it also has a sea beacon. When a ship lost in the direction of the ship, the sailor can rely on this concentration. A strong aroma to find the location of the land.

The other two legends are related to Christianity. One is that the taste of rosemary was given by Jesus. When Jesus fled from the Jewish to Egypt, he put his clothes on rosemary, so it had a noble, noble atmosphere. And with the power of God, it can be said that the devil was purified and planted around the church, also known as the Virgin Mary's rose.

Another legend is that the rosemary flower was originally white. When the Virgin Mary fled to Egypt with the baby Jesus, the sacred coat was hooked by rosemary, and the rosemary flower suddenly turned into sky blue. Shows respect for the Virgin Mary, and the rosemary flower turns light blue.
