Lemon Verbena is a small 1 to 3 cm shrub native to the Andes that grows at altitudes of 0 to 3,000 metres. It is grown for its highly aromatic lemon-scented leaves and used to season sauces, marinades and ice cream, among other things, and to make herbal teas and liqueurs. The essential oil obtained by steam distilling its leaves is used in perfumery and in cosmetics.
