Flowers

Flowers represent the reproductive structures of plants and often contain concentrated aromatic compounds, pigments, and volatile oils that contribute to their distinctive fragrance and color.

In herbal traditions, flowers are frequently used for infusions, syrups, infused oils, and gentle topical preparations. Their chemistry can be delicate, and preparation methods often aim to preserve volatile compounds and color.
