Description - Native to damp, tropical environments, Cinnamon grows 20 to 30 feet high and has a thick bark. Its branches are sturdy, with young, green shoots, from which most commercial bark is taken. Cinnamon was once favored by elite Romans and used as an ingredient in perfumes and love potions. Today, we commonly see cinnamon in cooking, baking, and as an additive to scented candles or potpourri. Aside from its sweet tasting nature, it possesses several health benefits such as blood sugar, circulatory, and digestive support.
