Lavender is a Calming Herb
Lavender is an immensely popular herb mostly due to its wonderful fragrance and growing importance as an essential oil. Unlike most of its herbal relatives it is not a culinary herb. Lavender is a perennial that grows better in a well-drained and slightly alkaline soil. For better performing plants use a top dressing of lime in the fall. If you live in conditions where your soil is generally wet or soggy, lavender would not be a good choice for your garden.
Some varieties of Lavender, which are hardy to Zone 5, are:
· English Lavender
.Jean Davis (pink flowered)
· Hidcote (deep purple flowers)
· Munstead (blue flowers)
Because it is a woody plant lavender requires a bit more maintenance. Pruning needs to take place after you harvest the flowers in the summer. Make sure you use sharp pruning shears. Cut any remaining flower stalks and approximately 3 inches of foliage. This pruning is necessary to keep the plants from becoming spindly looking. If you can’t prune in midsummer wait until the following spring and provide a more intense pruning until the plants are well shaped. Because lavender grows slowly I recommend purchasing established plants at your local garden center.
Lavender is a famous fragrance that can be found in many perfumes, cosmetics, and potpourris of every kind. Harvesting the flowers is an easy process for the kitchen gardener. Cut the flower stalks as soon as the flowers open. Tie several stalks together and fasten them with a rubber band. Hang them upside down to dry. You can remove the flowers from the stems for use in potpourri, floral water, and linen bags. Store them in a tightly sealed plastic bag and use them within the year.
Lavender oil is extracted mostly from the flowers of the plant. This process is done primarily by steam distillation. The essential oil has a calming effect, which makes an effective remedy for the nerves and aids in treating anxiety, headaches, depression, migraines, nervous tension and emotional stress. It’s aroma increases mental activity, as well as removes nervous exhaustion. So on those rough days just sit a spell in your little patch of lavender to ease your stress.
