Botanical Name: Lavandula dentata

French Lavender is a small, dense evergreen shrub, growing to 1 by 1 meter. It has toothed grey-green leaves held on upright branches, but is woody at the base. The sticky, aromatic leaves are about 3 cm long and borne in rosettes up the woody stem. The synonym ‘Fringed Lavender’ comes from the small serrations in the leaves. The violet-blue flowers are held on slender grey stems and surrounded by papery bract of a similar colour. Lavandula dentata flowers for most of the year in Australia and is a very good bee and butterfly attractant.

Lavender is a much loved garden plant with a long history and many modern cultivars. The Lavandula genus belongs to the Laminaceae family, which is also known as the mint family. It has over 3500 species, from more than 180 genera, distributed across the globe. Lavandula dentata was given its current name by Linnaeus in 1753. Prior to this it was named Stoechas secunda in 1576 by Carolus Clusius, a Flemish doctor. Although this lavender had been known across the Arab world for many centuries Clusius was the first European to discover the plant in his travels to Gibraltar. The name Stoechas dentata may also be used as a synonym referring specifically to the name Fringed Lavender.

The natural habitat of most lavender species is characterised by dry, rocky or poor soil and low water conditions. French Lavender is generally more heat tolerant, although, both French and English lavender are from Mediterranean regions. French Lavender is a significant scrub and understorey plant in forested areas and is native to southern and eastern Spain, Gibraltar, Balearic Islands, north western Africa, Ethiopia, Eritrea, Israel, Jordan and the Arabian Peninsula. It is naturalised in the Mediterranean, California, New Zealand and Western Australia.

Lavender use has been recorded since ancient times, with uses as varied as early cleansers and perfumes, medicinal headache treatments in the Renaissance Period, and even as an insect repellent. The name ‘lavender’ is derived from the word ‘lavare’ which means ‘to wash’. This reflects the early use of lavender plants in bath houses throughout Ancient Greece and Roman culture. Lavender was also spread around the floors and streets during the Middle Ages, to mask bad household odours and the stench from the streets. Today, there is a growing industry providing lavender oil for aromatherapy, cosmetics and cleansers.

Lavender is a multi-purpose garden plant with great potential, although most people are happy to grow it just for the ornamental value. Each variety is distinctive and may have different properties. For further information please check our other lavender plant listings.

Growing Conditions

As with most lavender species, L. dentata requires good drainage. In clay soils it is best to create a raised bed, perhaps in a rockery. Fertile, normal or sandy soil will produce good results. Container growing will also be successful, offering protection from frost and for managing difficult soil. Full sun is ideal, although part shade is also acceptable. French Lavender is very tolerant of hot, dry conditions and requires hot summers to grow well. It has low to average water requirements once established. This species does handle some humidity, but wet and humid summers may present a problem. Cold winters may damage the lavender plant, so planting in a protected position may be advised.

Many evolved with a requirement for high calcium and magnesium and this is commonly present in the natural environment. This lavender will tolerate lime, but does not like acidic soils. Garden lavender plants may need supplements to grow well. The fragrance is said to be stronger in chalky soils. Pruning of dead flowers is recommended, together with a light trim towards the end of the flowering period. In early spring the plants can be cut back quite hard to promote new growth. Plants can get straggly and become woody, so replacing them every 5-6 years is recommended. Propagation may be in spring or autumn with soft wood cuttings.

Medicinal Uses

Lavandula dentata has been used in traditional medicine for relieving headaches, rheumatism, to create vapour for treating colds and flu, and the oil is used in aromatherapy. Place leaves and flowers in boiling water to create steam and an aromatic vapour to treat respiratory conditions.

Culinary Uses

As a culinary herb lavender is used to add colour and flavour to sugar used for making icing, cakes, biscuits, meringues, ice creams and other deserts. It is also added to vinegars, jams and marmalades. Lavender blossoms may also be tied in muslin bags and cooked with black currants and soft fruits. Some lavender species are able to be used for other culinary purposes, but most are not suitable.

Other Uses

Dried lavender leaves and flowers may be used for pot pourri or to create small lavender pillows to help with insomnia or to use as moth/insect repellents. To dry the lavender sprigs, cut the full length of the flower stalk just before flowers are fully open and hang upside down in a cool, dry place with good air flow. The flowers also last well as a cut flower and they are well known for use in dried flower arrangements and to create incense sticks.

Perfect size and weight with compact size
Style: Rack with 3 Pairs (3, 5, and 8 Pound)
I purchased the Amazon Basics Neoprene Dumbbell Hand Weights specifically for Pilates, and they’ve been a great addition to my routine. The size and weight are perfect for controlled movements, helping with muscle toning without feeling too bulky or awkward. The neoprene coating gives them a comfortable, non-slip grip, which is especially important during longer sessions or when your hands get a little sweaty. They feel secure and easy to hold through a full workout. I also like the shape—they don’t roll around on the floor, which makes transitions between exercises smoother and less frustrating. They’re compact enough to store easily but still feel durable and well-made. Overall, these are a simple, affordable, and effective option for Pilates or light strength training. I’d definitely recommend them for anyone looking to add a little resistance to their workouts without overcomplicating things.

Good purchase
Style: 3 Pound, Pair
These are just the right weight for me to start gaining muscle back in my arms, after a large weight loss. They are of good quality, they are covered in a nice rubber like coating that is soft to the touch. They are small enough that i can take them with me when I travel. My dog has got hold of them a couple times and played with them, and they held up just fine without any damage.

Solid, grippy, and they don’t roll away!
Style: 10 Pound, Pair
I bought these because I’m finally trying to build a consistent home workout routine and didn't want to drop a fortune on name-brand weights. I’ve been using this 10lb pair for about a month now for everything from overhead presses to lunges, and honestly, they’re exactly what I was looking for. The Pros: • That Neoprene Grip: The coating is fantastic. Even when my hands get pretty sweaty halfway through a workout, I don’t feel like I’m going to drop them. It’s a much "softer" feel than cold metal or hard plastic. • The Hex Shape: This is a small detail that makes a huge difference. Since the ends are hexagonal, they don't roll across the floor when I set them down between sets. They also stay put if I’m using them for "renegade rows" or floor work. • Compact Size: They aren’t bulky. I can easily shove them under my bed or in the corner of the closet when I’m done. • No Weird Odor: I was worried they might smell like a tire factory (which happens with some rubber-coated weights), but these had almost no scent right out of the box. The Cons: • Handle Diameter: The handles are a little on the thicker side. I have medium-sized hands and it’s fine, but if you have very small hands, they might feel a bit chunky to wrap your fingers all the way around. • Color Scuffs: The navy blue looks great, but if you clank them together or drop them on concrete, the coating can scuff or show dust pretty easily. The Verdict: If you just need a reliable set of weights for HIIT, Pilates, or general strength training, these are a no-brainer. You're basically getting gym-quality equipment for a fraction of the price. I’ll probably be back for the 15lb set in a few months!

Great Water Bottle!
Color: Off Road, Size: 30 Ounces
I was looking for an insulated water bottle that would actually fit in a standard cup holder. I decided to try the Owala FreeSip Sway Insulated Stainless Steel Water Bottle. Upon receiving it, I noticed that it felt solid in my hand. The mechanism worked very smoothly with a simple button press opening the lid. Once open, you can choose to either use the included straw or tip the bottle and drink from the chug spout. In addition to it fitting in my cup holder, I needed it to be leak proof. This bottle is leak proof, and the spout can be locked by engaging a lock in the back. The rugged flip handle is also a convenient way to carry the Owala when it's not in the water bottle holder on my backpack. I hand wash the body of the bottle, but the top disassembles easily and can go right in the dishwasher when I want a deep cleaning. The bottle has a wide opening, so it is very easy to clean the inside. This has quickly become my favorite water bottle due to its ease of cleaning, good insulation, ability to fit in my cup holder, solid construction and materials, and the option of using the straw or chug spout. I have the 30 ounce bottle, but I am going to be picking up a 40 ouncer also. You won't regret purchasing one! I have used the bottle for a couple of weeks now, and here are my observations: It has gone on two camping trips, and it has proven to be durable. I have placed the Owala on its side on my passenger seat (just to test it...it fits perfectly in my car's cup holder!). It did not leak a single drop on a long road trip. On my camping trip, the water in the bottle was still ice cold the next morning, so it keeps cold beverages very cold!
