Abstract

The genus Lavandula L. (Lamiaceae) is represented in Turkey by 3 taxa (Lavandula angustifolia Mill. subsp. angustifolia, L. pedunculata  (Mill.)
subsp. cariensis (Boiss.), L. stoechas L. subsp. stoechas). L. angustifolia
 is
locally known as “lavanta”, L.
pedunculata
subsp. cariensis is locally known as “karan”, L. stoechas subsp. stoechas .
is locally known as “karabaş” ( Mill, 1982; Dirmenci, 2012). Within this family there
are many medical species such as
Lavandula
L., Lavandula angustifolia Mill.
known as medical lavender, is conducting culture and research studies in many
places in the world. It is also known as the ‘’English lavender’2 or L. officinalis. Lavender is used in
aromatherapy. Its sedative nature, on inhalation has been shown both in animals
and man. Experimental studies in humans and animals have shown that the
sedative effect comes from linalool and linalyl acetate. Tanins contained in
flowers of lavender is showned antidiarrheal effect. Essential oil of lavender
is used in various skin diseases and wound healing. Essential oil of lavender
shortens the sleeping period, prolongs the sleeping period. In addition, it
also shows antimicrobial, antiinflammatory, fungicidal, insecticidal and
acaricidal effects (Zeybek and Haksel, 2010). In this study, we were made to
create sources Lavandula agriculture in Turkey. We collected four different
provinces in the Lavandula (5 samples
and 1 commercial oil). The results of a total five local and commercial are
given below. The flowers of Lavandula were water distilled for 3 h using a
Clevenger type apparatus.

The essential oils were analyzed by GC and GC-MS simultaneously.
The main constituents were identified as linalool 31.9 –
50.0 % and linalyl acetate 15.4 – 42.0 %.
