===== Aromatherapy =====

A traditional wedding flower, stephanotis is often included in bridal bouquets. It is native to Madagascar but is usually associated with Hawaii.

The sweet, delicate scent of these throated white flowers promotes love for ourselves and for others. Because of their connection with weddings, stephanotis blossoms can be sniffed to ease the often stormy sea of matrimony.

The fragrance also instills peace and happiness.

Though the cut flowers are expensive (when available) and no true stephanotis essential oil is sold, the plant can be grown indoors or, in temperate climates, outdoors.
