Lavender is one of my favorite. It looks beautiful, it smells amazing and it has a lot of uses. You can dry it, put it in pouches and store them in your dresser. That will make your cloth smell nice and keep moths away. Or you can add dried lavender to your bath for stress relieve. There are more uses but the list would be too long to add here.
In German this flower is called Schmuckkörbchen which literally translates to little jewelry basket. Ya I know, the German way of naming things is often very weird. This flower has no other use other than to be a fly by food stop for our winged friends and to be pretty.f
The German name of this flower doesn’t sound half as nice as the English one. Also Kronen-Lichtnelke doesn’t sound romantic one bit, just kinda silly, at least for German ears. However, during the Middle Ages this flower was used as medicinal herb.
