Eastern White Cedar (Cedrus libani)
 
Also called arborvitae, which means 'tree of life.'  Explorer Jacques Cartier dubbed it this name after Native Americans taught him and his men that White Cedar foliage cures scurvy.
 
White Cedar has been used for centuries as a smudging incense to bless a new home before moving in.  The scent not only purifies, but also attracts good energy and is said to enhance psychic powers when used in rituals.

 

Our powerfully aromatic White Cedar is also wonderful in potpouri.
