Lavender – fresh flowers

Lavender have various health benefits, including relieving anxiety and depression and supporting skin health. You can consume it, such as a tea or capsule, apply it topically, or use it for aromatherapy.

Enjoy the flowers and their fragrance to enhance your space. Let dry and have a dried arrangement, or let dry and use for a yummy calming tea. Flowers can be crushed in your hand and inhale the aromatic properties of peace and calm.

People usually associate lavender with two specific traits: its fragrance and its color. But you may not know that the lavender flower and the oil derived from it have long histories in herbal medicine.

The word lavender comes from the Latin root “lavare,” which literally means “to wash.” The earliest recorded use of lavender dates back to ancient Egypt. There, lavender oil played a role in the mummification process.
