Abstract

Initially, the lavender cultures were found in the Mediterranean basin, in the limestone and rocky areas (Europe and North Africa), as well as in Western India (Essential oil crops. Production guidelines for lavender, Department of Agriculture, Forestry and Fisheries, 2009). Nowadays, with an increasing spread along Europe, lavender is cultivated on almost every continent and can be found also in North America, South America, South Africa, Asia or Australia. According to INTELIAGRO (Grebenicharski Stiliyan, Lavender Production in Bulgaria, 2016), Europe remains a main market, with Bulgaria and France holding 2/3 of the EU's lavender exports. The EU member countries, such as France and Germany, are also among the main importers of lavender, as well as the US and Swiss markets.
