Lavender Varieties. Lavender plants belong to the mint family. Perhaps the most common species of lavender is Lavandula angustifolia, a species that belongs to the group referred to as English lavenders. Hybrids of the Lavandula angustifolia and Lavandula latifolia are called Lavandins, and these species are generally planted for ornamental use in gardens or commercially for use in cosmetics.
Overview. Many people appreciate lavender (Lavandula angustifolia or Lavandula officinalis) for its fragrance. Lavendar is a common ingredient in soaps, shampoos, and sachets for scenting clothes. The name lavender comes from the Latin root lavare, which means to wash.. Lavender may have earned this name because it was frequently used in baths to help purify the body and spirit.
