True lavender, or narrow-leaved lavender, is the most valued type of lavender for the olfactory quality of its essential oil.
Formerly used by the Romans to perfume their clothes and bath, lavender is now a classic for all. The word lavender comes from latin, "lavare" meaning to wash; people were using it in their laundry water.

There are numerous tobacco varieties, but woodland tobacco is the greatest. Literally.
The plant grows big quickly, and the stems can branch out. The leaves are very long and large, oblong, and of a light green shade. The flowers are clustered in a tight panicle, and their colour is a pure white. At nighttime, the plant's perfume gets stronger and attracts moths and other night pollinators.
