Helichrysum Angustifolium

Helichrysum oil is extracted from Helichrysum angustifolium, of the Asteraceae (Compositae) family and is commonly known as everlasting oil, Immortelle and St. John's herb (not to be confused with St. John's Wort which is known as Hypericum perforatum).

The designations 'italicum' and 'angustifolium' indicate that they are different varieties of the same plant, some would argue that they are the same plant merely growing in different geographic locales. 'Italicum' has whiter leaves than does the 'angustifolium'. An angustifoliate is a plant with narrow leaves.
