From cleaning wounds to repelling plague, lavender has had a myriad of uses throughout the centuries. It’s come to represent devotion, purity, luck, cleanliness, compassion, constancy, faith, humility, and love. Yet in the Victorian language of flowers, it also meant distrust.
Let's explore the appearance of lavender in ancient folklore, medicinal uses, and even its magickal uses in this week's episode of Fabulous Folklore.
