Lavendula stoechas is a highly aromatic, velvet-leaved, drought resistant, flowering perennial.
Tall (she can grow up to 2m if you let her) and stately, her fragrant, silver leaves are synonymous with any Mediterranean or dry gardens.
The flowers are pink to purple, produced at the top of slender, leafless stems 10–30 cm long – creating a illusion of blue butterflies swirling in the wind.
Nota bene: This lavender does not enjoy the frost or having soggy roots – think about increasing drainage by adding inorganic mulch (such as clay beads or gravel) to your soil mixture.
The Tales

And you will have seen both the petals and the oil in handmade soap – it has historically been the most popular ingredient since the dawn of soap.
