morphological character
Lavender perennial herb or small shrub, although called grass, is actually a purple-blue flower. Lavender is clustered and branched, usually growing vertically. According to different varieties, the plant height is 30 ~ 40 cm and 45 ~ 90 cm. In mountainous areas with quite high altitude, a single plant can grow to1m. Leaves alternate, elliptic-lanceolate, or large needle-shaped, and the leaf margin rolls back. Spike terminal, 15 ~ 25 cm long; Corolla lower tubular, upper lip-shaped, upper lip 2-cleft, lower lip 3-cleft; The flowers are about 1.2 cm long and have blue, deep purple, pink, white and other colors. The common color is purple-blue, and the flowering period is from June to August. The whole plant has a faint aroma with a slight woody sweetness. Because the villi on flowers, leaves and stems contain oil glands, they will burst when touched lightly and release fragrance.
Cultivation and utilization
Lavender angustifolia is the most commonly cultivated variety in this genus, and many different varieties have been cultivated at present. Other species that are often planted for viewing are Spanish lavender, lavender with teeth leaves and lavender with fern leaves.
Lavender spikes can be used as dried flowers and decorations. Lavender, fragrant flowers and flower buds can be used as incense pots and sachets, and dried flowers can be sealed as sachets. Putting sachets in the closet can make clothes fragrant and prevent insects from eating them. The commercial cultivation of lavender is mainly to extract lavender essential oil from lavender flowers, which can be used as disinfectant and aromatherapy essential oil.
Spanish lavender (native to China) was introduced into Australia and became an invasive species in all parts of Australia.
Lavender in cultivation garden: Lavender flowers in Spain secrete a lot of nectar, which can produce high-quality honey. Countries around the Mediterranean are the main producing areas of lavender honey. Lavender flowers can be used as lavender jam, and can also be used as materials and decorations for western-style cakes. Lavender can be used as a spice when cooking food, and can also be used alone or mixed with other herbs to make Provence spices.
Cultivation management
It is a perennial shrub and can be used for about 10 years. Wide variety, easy cultivation, sunshine-loving, heat-resistant, drought-resistant, cold-resistant, barren-resistant and salt-resistant. The cultivation site needs sufficient sunshine and good ventilation. Time from sowing to flowering (or harvesting): 18 ~ 20 weeks. Lavender should be cultivated in large containers. But in order to prevent it from getting too wet, you can use a pottery jar or a smaller plastic jar, and don't use a big jar unless it is quite large.
Lavender can't stand high temperature and humidity, and it will die after being flooded for a long time. When planting outdoors, be careful not to let the rain directly rain on the plants. After May, it is necessary to move the place out of direct sunlight, increase ventilation to reduce the ambient temperature and keep cool, so as to spend the hot summer safely. Pay attention to sunshine, moisture, temperature and patience.
1. Soil: Suitable for weak alkaline or neutral sandy soil. Special attention should be paid to the selection of substrates with good drainage, which can be mixed with 1/3 pearl clay, 1/3 vermiculite and 1/3 sphagnum moss. If it is cultivated in the open field, pay attention to the drainage of the soil, and raise the mound into a border before planting.
2. Watering: Lavender doesn't like to keep water in its roots. After the first watering, water should be supplied when the soil is dry. The surface medium was dry and the inside was moist, and the leaves wilted slightly. Water in the morning, avoid the sun, and don't splash water on leaves and flowers, otherwise it will rot and breed pests and diseases. Continuous humid environment will make the roots grow poorly, there is not enough air to breathe, and even the whole plant will die suddenly. This is often the reason for the failure of lavender cultivation.
3. Illumination: Lavender is an all-day plant, which needs sufficient sunshine and a suitable humid environment. The environment that can give full sunshine is better, and it can grow in half sunshine, but there are few flowers. In summer, at least 50% sunlight should be blocked, ventilation should be increased, and the ambient temperature should be lowered, so that although the growth is weak, it will not die. Lavender can grow well on the flat ground in winter, so it should be cultivated in sunny places.
4. Temperature: Lavender is semi-heat-resistant, so it is cool. It likes warm in winter and cool in summer. The suitable growth temperature is 15 ~ 25℃, and it can grow at 5 ~ 30℃. Limit temperature: above 35℃, above 38 ~ 40℃ for a long time, and the top stems and leaves turn yellow. In northern winter, when the temperature is lower than 0℃ for a long time, the seedlings begin to hibernate, during which the seedlings can tolerate the low temperature of -20 ~-25℃.
5. Fertilization: When fertilizing, you can put bone meal as the base fertilizer (once every three months) in the pot soil, and then apply a fertilizer with higher phosphorus fertilizer, such as Huabao No.3 (20-30-20). Apply light fertilizer.
6. Pruning: Lavender flower essential oil is the most abundant, and it is mainly used in flowers or inflorescences. In order to facilitate harvesting, some small inflorescences in the early stage of cultivation may wish to be leveled with scissors, and the newly grown inflorescences are of the same height, which is conducive to one-time harvesting. Some varieties can be as high as 90 cm, and this method is also used to make plants low, promote more branches and flowers, and increase harvest. Pruning must be carried out after flowering, and the plant can be pruned to 2/3 of its original size, so that the plant type will be stronger and conducive to growth. Pruning should be carried out in cold seasons such as spring and autumn, generally in spring, and pruning in autumn will affect cold tolerance. When pruning, be careful not to cut off the lignified part, lest the plant weaken and die.
Seven common diseases:
When one-year-old sowing seedlings or cutting seedlings are damaged, the plants wilt, lose water, the leaves are dull, and the top of leaves and branches bend downward, which is most obvious in bud stage. Light can recover at night, and heavy will die in two or three days, with rotten roots and brown shiny stems. In addition to pathological manifestations, seedlings over three years old have wilting symptoms at the center or edge of the plant, which gradually develop inward and outward, and the branches wilt and die, and finally the whole plant dies. The degree of damage varies with the age and variety of trees. Generally, it starts in May and reaches its peak in July and August. The incidence of lavender in France is serious, and the varieties of 2-4 17 in the former Soviet Union are relatively light.
Propagation methods There are four propagation methods of lavender: sowing, cutting, layering and rooting. Cutting and sowing are the main methods.
1. seed propagation: lavender seeds are small and suitable for seedling raising and transplanting. Generally, the sowing date is in spring, March-June or 9-165438+1October in warm regions, April-June in cold regions and winter in greenhouses. The germination days are about14 ~ 21d. The optimum temperature for germination is 18 ~ 24℃. Proper light is needed after germination, and weak light is easy to grow white. Because of the long dormancy period, seeds should be soaked with 12 hours before sowing, and then soaked with 20-50ppm gibberellin for 2 hours before sowing. Before sowing, level the land, water it, soak it underwater and sow it evenly, then cover it with a layer of fine soil with a thickness of 0.2 cm, and cover it with grass or plastic film to keep it moist. Keep the seedbed moist at 15 ~ 25℃, and sprout in about 10 days. It takes a month to germinate without gibberellin treatment. It takes 1 ~ 3 months to germinate below 15℃. Pay attention to spraying water at seedling stage. When the seedlings are too dense, they can be properly thinned and transplanted when the seedling height is about 10 cm.
2. Cutting propagation: Cutting is generally carried out in spring and autumn. Softwood cuttings can also be used in summer. The cutting substrate can be 2/3 coarse sand mixed13 sphagnum moss. Select the well-bred plants with vigorous development, select the terminal buds of one-year-old semi-lignified branches with short pitch and no pilling, and cut at the top 8 ~ 10 cm. The cut of the cutting should be close to the stem node, so as to be smooth and not break the phloem. Remove the leaves from the lower two nodes, soak them in clear water for 2 hours, then cut them into the soil and take root in about 2 ~ 3 weeks. You can also choose 8 ~ 10 cm annual branches and take root in about 40 days under the conditions of good drainage, humidity and bed temperature of 20 ~ 24℃. Don't use the terminal bud of inflorescence, because the aging of flower branches will have an adverse effect on future growth. Plastic film cutting, soil preparation and soil preparation. Cover with plastic film after watering and cut immediately. 5 ~ 8 cm deep and 20 ~ 25 cm row spacing. Pay attention to raising ground temperature and promoting root development; Prune extended branches frequently, remove spikes in time, promote branching and cultivate strong seedlings. The plant spacing is 60cm, and the row spacing is 120cm. Water immediately after planting.
3. Propagation by ramets: It can be carried out in both spring and autumn, with 3-4-year-old plants, and with mature old roots in March-April in spring, each branch has bud eyes.
history
In ancient Greece, lavender was called Nardus, sometimes referred to as Nard for short. The name comes from a Syrian city called Nalda.
In ancient Rome, a pound of lavender could be sold for 100 dinar, which was about equivalent to the salary of a farm worker at that time, or the reward of a barber for cutting 50 people's hair.

Lavender with dark fragrance and sleeves
The fragrance of lavender is a half-awake state in life, which is extremely light and engraved in the bottom of my heart.
This kind of pale blue-purple flower can be smelled as far away as ten miles during flowering; What is even more amazing is that standing in a big flower field, the smell of incense is still faint and gentle, unlike other fragrant flowers, which are eager to smoke people. Walking among the flowers, the skirt has a kind of Leng Xiang, just like the mood of first love. It is said that lavender got its name from this.
The fragrance of lavender is neither as light as jasmine nor as bitter as cordate telosma. It's so beautiful, I go my own way, regardless of others' eyes. People who like it will like it very much, and people who don't like it will avoid it once. This unique fragrance is always associated with deeper and deeper depression. Melancholy, but not bitter, such as the faint moonlight after autumn, such as missing Qian Shan across thousands of waters.
The love of lavender scent is a complex-a complex of attachment and nostalgia. Among all kinds of aromatherapy, it is not as strong as a rose, nor as indifferent as a lily, but it cannot be erased-it is the fragrance left in the heart after the wind, the faint moonlight in the clear night, the music flowing from the violin, and the old clothes turned out at the bottom of the cabinet; It was a peach blossom in March when I was a teenager, and even the color of the sun began to peel off, but the smile of the teenager outside the sinus was still bright; Not to mention an unfinished dream. When I wake up, I only feel the melancholy that can't be resolved ... or, lavender is something in my memory, not a large purple field, and there is a fragrance floating in the air.
Lavender is almost a melancholy footnote. People who like lavender must be very emotional and attached to everything.
A woman who loves lavender must have a special taste, so that you can recognize her in the crowd at a glance: demure, elegant and mature. Only women who have experienced emotional and life experiences can truly understand and appreciate lavender.
For men, the fragrance of lavender is like a delicate and graceful skirt, white, purple, blue and pink, fluttering lightly, shyly or wildly in the wind. It is the initial love for women, warm but not erotic.
I hope I can help you.
