In the Luberon of France,around the Mont-Ventoux ,in the region of Sault,there is a lavender field with its splendid atmosphere and scenic view which is one of the prominent summer trip in Provence.
The lavender field,named as Somerset Lavender Farm plants around 50,000 lavender plants with growing bushes around a five acre field.The view here is just like an professional’s painting.
The history is dealt by the sayings that a fairy named Lavandula with blue eyes and blonde hair was born in the middle of the wild lavender plants of the Lure mountain in the Southern French Alps.Years grew and she needed to choose a place to settle and was looking through her landscape notebook until she saw the poor landscapes of Provence and she became sad,and started crying.When her lavender colored tears fell on the book,the book was stained into blue.She tried to wipe those stains but it is of no use and those tears were spread all over the landscapes of Provence.To protect her mistake,she drew a bug sky above the stained landscape.From that day,the Provence’s lavender and the local blonde girls blue eyes sparkle and much more when by looking the blue sky over the fields of lavender at the end of the day.
There are nearly 30 varieties of lavender which produces various colored flowers like purple,white,pink and white.The wide and popular one is lavandin which is a hybrid one.France has about 1,700 producers with 16,000 hectares of lavandin also with pure lavender of 4,000 hectares.The lavender producing industry supplies around 1,000 jobs.
Between 2007 and 2010 the region’s popular production has been lavandin which is used in soaps,perfumes,oils,insect repellents.
Now,scientists are  looking forward to the lavender which will be resistant to micro bacterium as the lavenders are suppressing their lives to a confined period as some bacteria called cicaede is acting upon them.It is really bad that the lavenders are ruined which are supposed to be atleast 10 years but are dying within 3 years.It  is a great financial loss.
Lavender is been used as an herb for over 2,500 years and also used for mummification and perfume by Egyptians,Arabians and Phoenicians in olden days.Romans used lavender oils for cooking and bathing.
Lavender are first used by the Arabians which spread through Europe from Greece and also France.They used to use lavender as a decoction to gin,vodka and also are used for migraine head aches.
Lavender gives an unique fragrance which is one among top commercial products.France is considered as the world leader in growing and producing in lavender.
