Lavender has been cultivated for thousands of years across the Mediterranean, prized for its fragrance and calming properties. The distinctive flower spikes contain tiny blooms arranged densely along the stem, and they're beloved by pollinators. Dried lavender retains its scent remarkably well, making it a favorite for sachets, teas, and essential oils across cultures.
