Native to Australia, the tea tree produces one of the most well-known essential oils. The tree was first discovered by Captain Cook's sailors in the 18th century - they brewed a tea with its leaves to fight scurvy, hence the plant's name. The indigenous people were already well aware of the healing powers of the leaves. Research has proved that Tea Tree essential oil has powerful antimicrobial and anti-fungal effects. Its aroma is pungent.
