It leaves a lovely fragrance in your home when making tea.

Is this a relative to bay leaves? Or so many people are calling 2 things 1 name. All the many bay leaves that I have seen, doesn't have any lines in them, only the one leaf line not so many as the pictures indicate.

This likes like a different plant to the one I know. This picture has more veins than the local one I know in Antigua. Perhaps we have two....

The leaves and tree of Pimenta racemosa, Myrtaceae - The West Indian Bay tree, used culinarily and to produce the cologne called bay rum.
