Lavender is a wonderfully aromatic flowering shrub that may grow from 2 to 6 feet high. It is native to the Mediterranean area, the Arabian peninsula, and Russia, and thrives best in climates with wet winters and dry summers. It is mainly cultivated in Europe, Australia, and the US.

Lavender has long been used to tone the digestive system and to calm the nerves, relieve pain, and improve sleep. The ancient Egyptians included it in formulas for mummification.
