They are the star-shaped hairs that cover the plant. Lavender has been used since ancient times, and the Romans added lavender to their bath water, hence the name from the Latin lavare, 'to wash. Differences in soil, altitude, temperature, precipitation, and seasons contribute to subtle changes in the scent from one lot of Lavender to another.
