Hasik Lavender
Miller and Morris (1988) wrote that: "Like the other Dhofar Lavanders, L. dhofarensis, L. samhanensis and L. macra, the flowering heads and buds of L. hasikensis were rubbed between the plams and over the body as a deodorant and give the body a pleasant smell. Bees love these plant, as they do all over the world wherever they occur, and their nectar makes very delicious honey". (Ref. Plants of Dhofar).
