Lavender There are around twenty eight species of lavender and it is one of the most commonest plants that we all associate with essential oils and bathroom products, when we buy toilet blocks, air freshener, essential oils and room deodorises, you can always find lavender as one of the scents. It can be found in most well established gardens and in garden centres as it is a great plant for adding colour to the garden display.
