Initial version with properties, locations, uses, and tips
Lavender is a fragrant medicinal herb in Crimson Desert with long stalks bearing small oval purple buds and a soft, sweet fragrance. It belongs to the Mushrooms and Herbs category of gatherables and is one of three "awakening" herbs that can push a stat beyond its normal cap. When processed through alchemy, Lavender produces Spirit awakening elixirs, allowing players to temporarily exceed their maximum Spirit pool.

Region |
Lavender grows primarily in the Hernand region, especially in sunny meadows and along the edges of cultivated fields. Its distinctive purple buds make it easy to identify at a glance.
Hernand Meadows: Open grasslands south and west of Hernand City are the main foraging grounds. Look for clusters of purple-budded stalks in sunlit areas.
Field Borders: The edges of farmed fields often host Lavender where wild plants persist alongside crops.
Hillside Clearings: Elevated clearings with good sun exposure in the Hernand Highlands also support Lavender growth.
Lavender's alchemy effect is Spirit awakening, which temporarily increases your Spirit pool beyond its normal maximum. This is a powerful buff for ability-heavy combat styles that rely on Spirit for skill usage. Spirit awakening elixirs are distinct from standard Spirit restoration potions; they do not just refill your gauge but actually expand the cap.
Lavender is one of three awakening herbs. White Lavender provides Stamina awakening, and Blue Lavender provides a body-hardening effect. Together, the three lavender varieties cover Spirit, Stamina, and physical toughness.
Spirit awakening elixirs are essential for builds that rely heavily on skills and abilities. Stock up on Lavender if you use a Spirit-intensive playstyle.
Combine Lavender-brewed Spirit awakening with White Lavender Stamina awakening for a powerful dual buff that extends both resource pools.
Lavender is concentrated in Hernand, so gather a large supply during the early game before moving to regions where it does not grow.
