Lavender is not only a symbol of love, sung in the song of the same name, but also a wonderful source of health. This evergreen semi-shrub has been known for its healing abilities since the time of ancient Rome, where its leaves were added to water for washing the body and hands.
It was believed that in this way the Romans were among the first to learn to resist the development of bacterial infections. It is not surprising that lavender, the medicinal properties of which have been used for so long, can be found in cultivated form in almost every garden today.
