## About
Many lavenders are cloned, each plant a copy of its parent. Population lavender is grown instead from gathered seed, so every plant in the field is its own, and the oil carries the vivid energy of a lavender grown from seed.This one is grown in the French Alps and steam-distilled from the flowering tops of organically produced Lavandula angustifolia. Its aroma is fresh and bright, and it has an extra high level of sweet esters, which give it the calm that lavender is known for. Quietly, it may be the hidden gem of the whole lavender shelf.DetailsBotanical name: Lavandula angustifoliaAlso called: lavender fineOrigin: French Alps, grown from gathered seed, organically producedMethod: steam-distilled from the flowering topsShelf life: about 2 to 3 years after openingHow to useDiffuse it as the evening settles, or let it be the everyday lavender in your blends.
