Description
As I was capturing this beautiful lavender plant, I was hoping that a bee or a hummer would come along and land on one of the petals, but it never happened! Oh well, you take what Mother Nature gives you. :-)
From Wikipedia:
The English word lavender came into use in the 13th century, and is generally thought to derive from Old French lavandre, ultimately from Latin lavare from lavo (to wash),[10] referring to the use of blue infusions of the plants.[11] The botanic name Lavandula as used by Linnaeus is considered to be derived from this and other European vernacular names for the plants.[citation needed]
The names widely used for some of the species, "English lavender", "French lavender" and "Spanish lavender" are all imprecisely applied. "English lavender" is commonly used for L. angustifolia, though some references say the proper term is "Old English lavender".[citation needed] The name "French lavender" may refer to either L. stoechas or to L. dentata. "Spanish lavender" may refer to L. stoechas, L. lanata, or L. dentata.[citation needed]
