In May we planted 6000 lavender plants on the hill side just to the East of our fish pond. Now, they are just little plants that need lots of loving care. We all take turns walking the lavender and checking for plants that may not be getting enough water or struggling a bit. Even with out the large purple branches you run your hand over the plant and it stirs up a strong lavender smell that fills your nose. I imagine, a few years from now you'll be able to smell it from a half mile away!
Lavender can be used for many different things, cooking, oils, candles, potpourri, lotions, perfumes and more! We look forward to sending the smell your way!
