modify interspace when using in line includegraphics

Question

I want to add an image in a text with the following code:

documentclass[english]{article}
usepackage{babel}
usepackage{graphicx}

newcommand*lavanda{vcenter{hbox{includegraphics[height=5cm,width=1.5cm,angle=-60]{lavande_col}}}}

begin{document}
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA 
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA 
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA qquad qquad qquad$lavanda$
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA 
end{document}

The result is this:

I would like to force the text to follow the contour of the image. So that I would have: (i) the same interspace before and after the image; and (ii) the text not stopping at the border of the image but at the border of the drawing.

And yeah... Unfortunately I do not know how to do that. Can someone help, please?

It is very easy with the insbox plain macro-package: it defines an InsertBoxR command, to be used before a paragraph. It takes two mandatory arguments: the number of untouched lines before the insertion, and the inserted object, and one optional argument: the number of supplementary shorter lines, in case TeX doesn't make a correct computation of the necessary line.
There's like wise an InsertBoxL command.
documentclass[12pt]{article}
usepackage{lipsum}
usepackage{graphicx} 
input{insbox}
makeatletter
@InsertBoxMargin=1.5ex
makeatother

begin{document}

InsertBoxR{3}{includegraphics{lavender-drawing}}[1]

lipsum[1-3]

end{document}
