Also known as waxflower, Geraldton Wax is a stunning evergreen shrub, native to the southwestern regions of Australia. Traditionally used in flower arrangements, certain sub-species of the shrub are edible, and produce a fantastic floral kaffir lime leaf flavour and aroma when crushed. These tiny zesty needles pack a punch in any sweet or savoury creation. For brewing, infuse 1tsp per 250ml of boiling water, and steep for 10 minutes.
