1. Is it a flower?Lavender and forget-me-not are not the same flower. Lavender is a perennial shrub of the genus Lavandula in the family Lamiaceae, while forget-me-not is a perennial herb of the genus Forget-me-not in the family Boraginaceae. There are big differences in classification. In addition, they also differ in color, appearance, and aroma. It is relatively easy to distinguish them. 2. The difference between the two1. Different appearance: Lavender flowers are two-lipped, and the colors are mostly purple and blue, in addition to white, pink, etc. Forget-me-nots have five petals and are larger, and come in colors such as purple, pink, purple-red, orange, yellow, and white. 2. Different smell: The whole lavender plant has a fragrance with a unique smell. There are oil glands in its flowers and leaves. When they are touched and broken, the fragrance will be released. In comparison, the scent of forget-me-nots is much lighter, and only the flowers have a fragrance, which can usually be smelled only when you get close. 3. Different distribution: Lavender is native to the Mediterranean coast and can be found all over Europe. In my country, it is only grown on a large scale in Xinjiang. Forget-me-not is distributed in many places in my country, and also grows in Europe, Iran, Pakistan, India and other places. 4. Different effects: Lavender has a strong scent and can be used to extract essential oils. The dried flowers can also be made into sachets or used to make tea, which can help you sleep. Forget-me-nots are mainly used as ornamental plants, but they also have medicinal value. They can regulate the body's metabolism and have the effect of clearing away heat and detoxifying. |
