Bay laurel (Laurus nobilis)

The evergreen bay laurel tree is an aromatic and wonderful spice tree. The tree originally originated in Asia, but has settled in the Mediterranean thousands of years ago. The bay laurel tree occurs in many ancient Greek mythologies and the laurel wreath was used in ancient Greece as the crown of heroes and poets. In ancient Rome, the laurel tree symbolized courage, wisdom, and success, and the Roman emperors used crowns made from the branches of the laurel tree to show their high status, scholarship, and victories. The bay laurel wreath was also believed to have special magical powers that protect its wearer. For example, Emperor Tiberius is said to have used a laurel wreath especially during a thunderstorm to prevent lightning from hitting him.
The bay laurel tree thrives in a bright and warm place. In summer, lift the tree out onto the sheltered terrace or balcony. In winter, the tree thrives in a cool and light place at 5 ° C - 10 ° C. Bay laurel should always be watered regularly and moderately and its soil should never get wet.
