"Sun Bee" (Palmetto Honey - Gopher Tortoise Habitat):
Notes of palmetto honey, wild herbs & scrub wildflowers.
Scent Profile: Sweet // Herbal // Warm
Scent Strength: Soft & Subtle
Florida's palmetto scrub once stretched across the state, where saw palmetto blooms and scrub wildflowers produced a honey unlike any other—warm, golden, fragrant with wild herbs and sunshine. Gopher tortoises wandered this dry, sandy habitat, digging deep burrows that became underground cities, sheltering hundreds of other creatures in their cool chambers. Bees hummed among the wildflowers while tortoises carved secret worlds beneath the warm sand. This candle captures the essence of that lost landscape—the palmetto honey that tasted like sunshine, the scrub flowers heavy with bees, the hidden kingdoms beneath your feet. A tribute to Florida's ancient scrub and the tortoises who still dig their burrows, guardians of a world most never see.
Each Palmetto Honey candle is available in your choice of vessel: vintage glass Glow Jars for home elegance or rugged Infinity Tins for adventure and travel. Both feature the same premium, custom coconut, soybean, and apricot waxes.
Both classic 8 oz vessels hold vintage and timeless appeal--handcrafted just for you. Insatiably curious, we search the country for high-quality fragrance and essential oils to blend for your cozy pleasure and peace of mind. Our scents are crafted to whisper rather than shout—present but never overpowering, designed for those who appreciate nuanced fragrance that unfolds over time. Up to 60 hours burn time expected, dependent upon use. Made with clean-burning, cotton wicks. No phthalates! No parabens! No "bad" stuff.
