Unique stories

Guess what plant butchers once used to sweep their blocks? Butcher's broom (Ruscus aculeatus) is also known as �knee holly� as it grows below knee height and resembles holly. Indeed the small, evergreen bush grows upright stems covered with prickly, leaf-like cladophylls and round, glossy red fruits. Although the rest of the shrub has been used medicinally or culinary, it�s the root (or rhizome) that is the most renowned for its anti-inflammatory properties, among others.
