Detaljno

Botany

Laurel blossom refers to the flowers of Laurus nobilis (bay laurel), the Mediterranean tree whose leaves are the culinary bay leaf. The bay laurel is dioecious, with male and female flowers on separate plants. The flowers are about 1 cm in diameter and are borne in pairs beside a leaf. The fruit is a small, shiny black berry. The tree belongs to the family Lauraceae. The species is a surviving relic of the laurel forests that once covered much of the Mediterranean Basin, when the climate there was more humid.

Chemistry

Besides 1,8-cineole and the pinenes, the main components of the flowers are α-eudesmol, β-elemene and β-caryophyllene.
