Anyone know about this or where I can > find it..Thanks..Devon I won't say you can't find it .. but I'll say it doesn't exist as an essential oil. I say this because we find folks selling Linden Blossom Hydrosol which also doesn't exist. Linden .. or Lime Tree .. (Tilia vulgaris, Tilia europea, Tilia cordata) Blossoms do not take well to distillation .. its not cost effective and I know of no legitimate distiller who would claim to have ever distilled the oil in their entire life .. or heard of anyone else doing it. It is available as a solvent extracted Absolute .. and its common to see macerated Linden Blossoms. Y'all keep smiling. :-) Butch http://www.AV-AT.com Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
