The article highlights the significant increase in the price of linden, a key medicinal herb used in herbal teas, particularly during the winter months. The price per kilo of linden leaves has risen to 150 TL, while the flowers are now selling for 250 TL due to low yield and increased demand. Other herbs such as sage, thyme, chamomile, and rosehip have also seen a surge in demand and price. Mete Eltepe, a herbalist, emphasizes the benefits of linden and advises consumers to ensure the herb is green and fresh before purchase. The price of linden is expected to rise further next month.
