Folklore:
In ancient times it was said that the bay tree connects to the person who plants it. As such the success of it’s seeding creates not only a calm and peaceful life for the one who sowed it, but also connects that person to each of its leaves – and therefore connecting that person to the present. This connection to the ancient past includes many horticulturists along the way which lends to the strength of the Bay leaf and the many blessings it is associated with.
