VETIVER

Heaven’s gift to Earth ♥ Vetiver is a simple grass that grows prolifically & has some incredible special qualities and uses ~ it is being used worldwide to anchor soil in eroding flood washed lands ~ the 2- 4 meter deep vertical roots plunge deep into the ground in a pattern of high density and act as a weaver of soil and giver of nourishment back to earth, Originally a perennial grass native to India it is now grown and used in many tropical countries as a soil and water quality management crop. Vetiver grass is grown for many different purposes. It protects fields against pests and weed but also great for animal feed. 
In Israel, by Dr. Nativ Dudai found out that Vetiver is capable of growing in a fuel-contaminated ground! and found that the plant is also able to clean the ground so thoroughly that the soil is almost fuel-free. 
Vetiver Oil is extracted from the root and traditionally used as perfume base often used to warm citrus notes and sweet flower. 90% of world perfumes use vetiver in their mix as it also fixative in its deep amber resin. 
The oil of Vetiver is also great for helping stimulate collagen repair in the skin. The fibrous plant is also used for making thatch roof, mud bricks, basket weave and ropes.
The most amazing studies I have found are the studies in Vetiver’s use and treatment of children and adults with the ADD /ADHD gene type ~ The oil is a mild sedative and when rubbed on the soles of feet induces gorgeous calm soothing for hyperactivity and anxiety. Its deep amber scent is similar to patchouli without its headiness, ♥
Thank you Mother Nature.
