Did you know there is a difference between lavender and lavandin?
Lavender and Lavandin, they both are part of the Lamiaceae family, lavandin and lavender are just two species of the Lavandula genus.
Lavandula angustifolia is what many people in the aromatherapy industry refer to as “true” lavender, though technically all plants in the Lavandula genus are in fact true lavenders. This variety is a widely grown garden plant, and produces an essential oil that is delicate, floral, and a bit sweet.
Lavandin - Hybrid Lavender or Lavandula x intermedia. Lavandin is a naturally occurring hybrid between two lavender species: Lavandula angustifolia (see above) and Lavandula latifolia (a.k.a “Spike Lavender” - a pungent-smelling lavender native to Mediterranean Europe). Lavandin is especially known for producing a LOT of essential oil, up to 10x more than English lavender! Lavandin has a powerful lavender scent, with an herbal, camphor-like undertone.
WAIT WAIT WAIT, did you say hybrid? Yes, I actually did. A hybrid is not the same as a GMO. Hybrids are safe and all natural and are just a cross between two species and occur with and without human intervention.
