English Lavender : Lore has it that lavender can attract men. It was said that young ladies would wear small lavender bags in their cleavage to lure suitors. However, it was also used for chastity.

On St Luke's day young maidens would sip on a lavender tea and say:

"St Luke, St Luke, be kind to me,

In my dreams, let me my true love see.”

Girls would tuck some lavender under their lover's pillow so their thoughts would turn to romance. Lavender placed under the marriage mattress would ensure marital passion.
