The sticky rockrose is a shrub of the cistaceae family, which can reach a height of more than 2 meters. It has large white flowers, with a yellow spot at the base, and sometimes another purple overlap. Its fruit is shaped like a capsule shaped like a basket, with seeds of barely 1 mm. It has branches and leaves covered with a sticky and smelly substance, the “labdanum”, which provides the characteristic scent of rockrose that they give off in spring and summer. The species is distributed worldwide by Spain, mainly in the southwest of the peninsula, Portugal, northern Morocco and Algeria and southern France. Spain is the country with the largest area of rockrose in the world. It is the main commercial source of bee pollen in the Iberian Peninsula. It is common to observe in a natural way a rough rose growing in areas of bush, dry, sunny soils and Mediterranean areas. It grows with greater frequency in loose soils, of little fertility and without much content in limestones. Rockrose strengthens the immune system and helps the body to generate defenses. There are other plants famous for these properties, such as echinacea. But the syrup also has associated other properties: it is antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, antiviral and antibacterial.
