You have found the tree of love. 

 

Hawthorn // Heart Tonic

Hawthorn tree was considered a symbol of love and grows in the temperate regions of Europe and North America.

Romans utilized this berry and leaf along with Native American, European and Chinese traditionally for supporting the heart physically and emotionally.

In modern times it has been the subject of hundreds of double blind human trials with supportive evidence.

It strengthens the heart muscle, helping with increased exercise tolerance, along with supporting a normal heart rhythm.

This is due to the high concentration of flavonoids (powerful antioxidant) and the berry is full of oligomeric procyanidins (improve blood flow, reduce symptoms of diabetes, and to ease swelling in the joints).

These constituents work together to create reinforced pumping of the heart, flow and antioxidant protection.
