Lavender essential oil is steam distilled from the Lavandula angustifolia, formerly L. officinalis, a flowering plant in the family Lamiaceae, native to the Mediterranean (Spain, France, Italy, Croatia etc.). Its common names include lavender, true lavender and English lavender (though not native to England); also garden lavender, common lavender and narrow-leaved lavender.
It is a strongly aromatic shrub growing as high as 3+1⁄2 to 6+1⁄2 ft tall. The leaves are evergreen, 1–2+1⁄2 inches long, and 3⁄16–1⁄4 in broad. The flowers are pinkish-purple (lavender-colored), produced on spikes 1–3 in long at the top of slender, leafless stems 4–12 in long. The species name angustifolia is Latin for "narrow leaf". Previously, it was known as Lavandula officinalis, referring to its medicinal properties.
English lavender is commonly grown as an ornamental plant. It is popular for its colorful flowers, its fragrance, and its ability to survive with low water consumption. It does not grow well in continuously damp soil and may benefit from increased drainage provided by inorganic mulches such as gravel. It does best in Mediterranean climates similar to its native habitat, characterized by wet winters and dry summers.
