Lavender (Lavandula Officinalis) is a perennial evergreen lush shrub, the height of which is from 30 to 100 cm. The root system is fibrous; the stems are branched, up straight, often lignified from below. Leaves are sessile, oblong-linear, and silver-green in color. Young foliage is very pubescent. In mid-July, the upper part of the stems is covered with many small purple, rarely white flowers. Lavender blooms for almost a month. The flowers are irregular in shape, two-lipped, collected in spike-shaped inflorescences. When ripe, the dry fruit opens, and yellow-brown lavender seeds spill out.
