A flowering plant of the mint family known for its beauty and sweet floral fragrance, lavender deserves more credit than just having a color named after it.
In ancient Egypt, lavender was used during the mummification process to perfume the corpse. The Romans used lavender to scent their baths, beds, clothes, and even hair. The ancient Greeks used it to ease ailments including headaches and indigestion. During the Black Plague of the 16th century, lavender oil was used to ward off the dreaded disease.
Today lavender continues to be cultivated across its countries of origin as well as Europe, Australia, New Zealand, North and South America. Its widespread presence is understandable due to its beautiful flowers, alluring scent, and extensive uses.
