Lavandula stoechas, known as Topped Lavender (U.S.), French Lavender (U.K.) or Spanish Lavender, is a flowering plant species in the family Lamiaceae. Native to the Mediterranean region, it is found in many countries including France, Spain, Portugal, Italy, and Greece. This evergreen shrub usually grows to between 1-3 ft in height. From late spring and early summer, it produces pink to purple flowers on slender leafless stems that are 4- 12 inches long. These lavender-colored flowers appear in spikes and are crowned by larger sterile, bright lavender purple bracts. This perennial is more fragile than common lavender, but shares a preference for hot, dry, sunny conditions in alkaline soils. Lavandula stoechas is utilized in air fresheners and insecticides, with the flower spikes also seeing medicinal use to treat headaches, irritability, feverish colds, wounds, and as an insect repellent. Interestingly, it is also used to fight affections of the chest and bronchitis and for the preparation of infusions and essential oils.
