The flowering stems and leaves are dried and used for a fragrant tea, traditionally valued for supporting immunity and the respiratory system. The plant has a silvery, velvety appearance and prefers sunny, stony, well-drained places. It is drought-resistant and highly aromatic, with a mild, pleasant flavour. Mountain tea is a valuable traditional drink, increasingly sought after for its properties.
