Lavender
Lavandula angustifolia and Lavandula x intermedia
Why We Love It:
Herbal medicine has a long history with lavender. Its aroma can help relieve stress and promote a calm sense of wellbeing. This fragrant herb is also a popular ingredient to help encourage relaxation. Motherlove has several products that contain a gentle touch of lavender to provide a soothing and relaxing sensation.
What It Looks Like:
Lavender is a perennial plant, in that it can continue to grow, year after year. Typically, lavender grows up to two feet tall and has many branches of gray-green linear leaves. The very aromatic purple flowers, which grow on terminal spikes, are gathered just before opening.
