Description
Wild Lavender Garden Fine Art Photography. Also known as the Chaste Berry or Monk's Pepper Tree, this aromatic shrub is part of the mint family. Its pliable twigs are used in basketry.
Native to the Mediterranean, the plant may have obtained the name “chasteberry” to reflect the belief that the plant promoted chastity. Monks in the Middle Ages reportedly used it to decrease sexual desire.
