About the plant :

It is known since ancient times for its digestive and aphrodisiac virtues. Considered a lucky plant, it was used in the kitchen because it helped to digest food better and avoided intestinal fermentations. It is also part of the composition of herbs from Provence. Forbidden in the convents of the Middle Ages, it was «the devil’s grass» because of its stimulating and aphrodisiac properties. According to Dionysos it was «the herb of happiness» in connection with these same aphrodisiac virtues.
