From medieval times, strewing herbs like sage, tansy, violets, roses, mints, marjoram, hops lavender, juniper, rosemary, chamomile, “daisies of all sorts’’, cotton lavender, sweet woodruff and many more were mixed with rushes to cover stone and earthen flooring.  We shall show you how to use some of these strewing herbs in a contemporary manner to provide natural uplifting botanical fragrance throughout the home.
