Interesting facts: Tea Tree is a tree or a bush with narrow leaves and it can grow up to 7 meters high. It grows well in swampy ground, but now it is cultivated in plantations in many countries. It is a very durable tree - for oil production the wigs are trimmed every two years. Tea Tree oil has been traditionally used by the Australian Aborigines and it has been used in aromatherapy for a long time. It is so appreciated that during World War II the Tea Tree collectors were exempt from the military service, until enough essential oil has been produced. Every soldier and sailor then received the oil as a part of their emergency equipment because it can help with infected wounds and tropical diseases.
