Lavender is a universally adored herb cultivated primarily for the calming, floral fragrance found in its slender spikes of purple blooms and silver-green foliage. This intoxicating scent, which is clean, sweet, and slightly resinous, is released effortlessly when the plant is brushed against or dried. It is traditionally used to scent linen cupboards and create relaxing essential oils, though culinary varieties are also prized for adding a delicate floral note to shortbread, sugars, and summer cordials.

This plant is typically grown as a compact, woody evergreen shrub that provides year-round structure and colour in the garden. While hardiness varies by variety, all lavenders dislike winter dampness more than the cold itself. For the best results and the most abundant flowers, plant it in a location with full, baking sun. It is highly drought-tolerant once established and demands poor, sharp-draining soil, as it will rapidly succumb to root rot if grown in heavy, fertile, or waterlogged ground.
