At Niuxys, we offer two types of Lavender (Lavandula Angustifolia and Lavandula officinalis) grown in three different regions (Bulgaria, South Africa and France) .All varieties of Lavender share slightly similar properties and therapeutic functions, but the difference is in the growing conditions and the regions they came from. All varieties of Lavender that we carry will smell slightly different from each other as well as have different constituents. This is due to a slight variance in chemical make up brought on by the different growing conditions.
- Relaxing
- Calming

Product Abstract: The Lavender plant is a woody evergreen shrub, up to one meter tall, with pale green, narrow linear leaves and violet-blue flowers. The entire plant is covered with oil glands, which are in the star-shaped hairs that cover the plant. Lavender has a long history of being used since ancient times; its name originates from the Latin lavare, 'to wash', as the Romans added lavender to their bathwater. Differences in soil, altitude and temperature, precipitation and seasons contribute to subtle changes in the scent from one lot of Lavender to another.
