French lavender (Lavandula dentata) leaf. Coloured scanning electron micrograph (SEM) of a section of a French lavender leaf, showing the tooth-like structures (trichomes, small spikes) that give the plant its Latin name dentata, meaning toothed. A number of oil glands (small spheres) can also be seen. When the leaf is touched or damaged, the glands rupture and release the oil that gives lavender its distinctive fragrance. Magnification: x137 when printed 10 centimetres wide

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the intricate beauty of a French lavender leaf. Underneath its vibrant colors lies a world of fascinating details, revealed by scanning electron microscopy (SEM). The leaf is adorned with tooth-like structures known as trichomes, which are responsible for giving the plant its Latin name dentata, meaning toothed. These small spikes not only add to the aesthetic appeal but also serve important functions. Upon closer inspection, numerous oil glands can be observed scattered across the leaf's surface like tiny spheres. These glands play a crucial role in producing and releasing the essential oil that gives lavender its distinctive fragrance. When touched or damaged, these delicate glands rupture, allowing their aromatic oils to permeate through the air. The magnification level used for this print allows us to appreciate every minute detail at x137 when printed 10 centimeters wide. This image serves as a testament to nature's exquisite craftsmanship and highlights the botanical wonders found within our environment. French lavender (Lavandula dentata) belongs to the Lamiaceae family and thrives in Mediterranean regions. As an annual shrub with herbaceous qualities, it adds both visual charm and fragrant allure wherever it grows. This photograph captures not just a single leaf but also provides insight into the biology and structure of this flowering plant through SEM technology.
