Question
Hello Rabbi, A person has spice trees at home, and on Saturday night during Havdalah, he uses them for the ceremony. What blessing should he recite? Minei Besamim or Atzei Besamim?
Answer
Hello Rabbi,
According to Ashkenazi custom, during Havdalah, one always recites the blessing 'Minei Besamim'. [Therefore, it is good to take a type for which the blessing is 'Minei Besamim'].
The Sephardic custom is to bless each type with its appropriate blessing.
