Lavender – The Soul of Provence and a Remedy for a Restless Mind
Lavender (Lavandula) belongs to the mint family (Lamiaceae) and comes from the Mediterranean, where it grows as a sub-shrub. To us at KvětinyExpres.cz it is more than just a flower – it is an emotion. Its deep purple colour and unmistakable scent instantly transport us to sun-drenched fields in Provence. In floristry it is prized for its ability to add texture, a vertical line, and a calming character to a bouquet.
Facts from the world of herbs:
-
A natural stress reliever: Lavender's scent contains linalool, which has been shown to lower stress levels and help with insomnia.
-
French elegance: There are many species, but for decorative pots on a terrace the most popular is Lavender Stoechas (French lavender), recognisable by its distinctive “wings” at the top of the flower head.
-
Everlasting beauty: It is one of the few flowers that loses neither colour nor scent even once fully dried.
Tip from Andrea (Seasonal Arrangements Specialist): “Lavender is close to my heart and reminds me of our early days at the Kulaťák farmers' market. I love adding it to wedding bouquets, because its scent acts like a gentle sedative for nervous brides. If you are after a gift that lasts and delights every sense, I recommend our Pink Lavender Basket, which carries the very best summer atmosphere within it.”
✦ Use at KvětinyExpres.cz: Lavender adds a natural vibe to our mixed bouquets. It also shines beautifully on its own in a simple vase or as part of dried wreaths.
