Historical notes:

Eucalyptus radiata is a tree native to Australia, where its leaves were used by Aboriginal people in various remedies, including wound healing poultice and a type of steam baths.

It is said that Baron Ferdinand von Mueller, a 19th-century German-Australian physician, geographer, and botanist, who discovered nearly 800 new Australianplant species, was also instrumental to the development of the eucalyptus oil industry. Muellerintroduced the qualities of eucalyptus oils to his friend,Melbourne-basedpharmacist Joseph Bosisto. By 1894, Basistoerected his first crude still apparatus on the banks of Dandenong Creek, an area abundant inEucalyptus radiatatrees. Not-surprisingly, Eucalyptus radiata oil was also the first essential oil to be distilled at the site – the event now recognised as the birth of the Australian essential oil industry.
