I love lavender.

I grow a few different types in my garden. We’ll perhaps I should say I’ve tried to grow a few different types in my garden. The one that does best is Munstead. It seems to be the hardiest and I suppose the most forgiving?

The photo above is a close up of the tiny flowers on a slender lavender stem. You can see the skinny lavender leaves just underneath the lavender flowers. The other thicker green leaves belong to another plant. Once which I can’t remember which one it might be at this time.

Do you grow Lavender in your garden?

    That is an amazing close up! Lavender is one of my favorites, and you’ve provided a new perspective for it. Good job!

    There is such a wonderful smell that lavender produces and it attracts so many bees and butterflies. I am growing some now but unfortunately I have lost the seed packet at the moment. Put some dry in your clothes drawer for a free scent of lavender in your clothes.
