What flower should you give your Gemini? Lavender!
Like the multi-dimensional Gemini, lavender’s diverse use parallels Gemini’s personality traits. It’s social, attracting pollinators to visit and luring humans to snap spectacular selfies among rows of commercially grown plants. But lavender is also known for its use in aromatherapy, providing calmness and serenity, and it’s even thought to help promote sleep. The romantic fragrance and royal color make a lovely addition to bouquets, but this multi-purpose flower also tastes delicious.
