IN lavender contains aromas, mainly esters and aldehydes, which help regulate our mood. It has a very pleasant aroma and is often used by herbalists to treat depression.
If in the winter we put a few drops of lavender oil in water and put this water on the heater in the heat, it will spread its aromas throughout the house. We can also spray our bedding or clothes with it before ironing them, and they will smell for a long time.
The legend associated with it is also interesting. In the Christian religion, the herb is considered a symbol of purity, innocence and immortality. Legend has it that the Virgin Mary put the clothes of the newborn Jesus Christ to dry on a lavender bush, which then blossomed and began to smell, and when she put her clothes on the same bush, they were painted blue. That is why the blue color remains the main color in her iconographic images.
It should be noted that one of the most fragrant and quality lavender products is honey.
Lavender has its place in cooking. It can be used to decorate cakes, and its colors are included in the recipes of various desserts.
