Frankincense is a tree with small, needle-like leaves and fragrant white flowers. Frankincense trees are grown in desert or semi-desert regions throughout Africa, Yemen, India, Ethiopia and Somalia. The fragrance of the oil has been prized for centuries by providers of religious services and incense makers.
