Hi Kelly: I love the lavender plant and its fragrance and color, fresh and dried! I notice you have violets on a little pitcher in this post, as well, and February is the violet month. It's also the amethyst month! My birthday is this month so I simply must love all things lavender and purpley. When I bought my Seattle cottage, the bedroom had been freshly painted lavender. I decided to keep it that color because it seemed as comforting as the smell of lavender flowers.
OHHHHHHHHHHH SEEEEEEE Kelly, what did I tell you. There is more passion, style, love, fun and history in this post. I want it, badly! Especially the plum old purse. Please visit me and tell me where your shop is.
Yes, Linda. Aristocratic AND aromatic. Two excellent characteristics of lavender.
Which variety would you say you favor: English lavender (Lavandula angustifolia), Dutch Lavender (Lavandula x intermedia), Egyptian Lavender (Lavandula multifida or the Fernleaf lavender), or possibly the lesser known Spanish Lavender(Lavandula stoechas)? I'll tell you, species doesn't matter to me -- I love whichever lavender I can get my little hands on.
Don't you just love lavender?
Love, Kelly
