Lavender is wonderful aromatic evergreen shrub. Lavender loves the Mediterranean region. So here it struggles with our hot humid climate. If you consider Lavender an annual rather than a perennial you won't be so upset when it succumbs to our weather conditions. Lavender can have differently shaped leaves but these leaves are usually gray green in color. With wonderful fragrant purple flowers that bloom in full sun. Lavender can grow from 8" to 4' depending on the variety.
This herb is used in soap, perfumes, oils, sachets, etc.
