A Mediterranean-looking appearance. This robust and easy-care small shrub seduces plant lovers in many ways. True lavender (bot. Lavendula angustifolia) can be used as a medicinal and spice plant and belongs to the mint family. It captivates with its sweet, intense and complex scent. Flowers and leaves give off their aromatic scent, which magically attracts insects. The countless labiate flowers at the end of the stems are impressive during the flowering period from June to August. Their violet appearance is impressive and is similar to the play of colors of an amethyst.
