Lavender: the most magical of all herbs, has been revered, used and cultivated since the beginning of recorded time. Its virtues are limitless and its allure captivating. No other herb incites such emotion as that of lavender. Whether you love the herb for its fragrance, healthful properties or beauty, its magical qualities are ever present.
The lore of lavender is deeply rooted in the early discovery of the general pleasantness of the plant and the medicinal properties of its essential oil. It was discovered early that if clothing was washed and left to dry on lavender bushes, the scent would permeate the fabric. Once the clothes were donned, the wearer would develop a sense of claim and well-being.
Lavender flowers are known to represent purity, silence, devotion serenity, grace and calmness. In addition to the flower's significance, its purple color also comes with great symbolism. Purple is the color of royalty and speaks of elegance, refinement and luxury.
