It has attracted so many butterflies! So beautiful. Sometimes I snip a few sprigs and sprinkle it onto my clothes before I iron them. I take the other sprigs into my bath. It makes an amazing toner as well when emersed in boiling water and then let cool. I love the lavender I planted this spring in my garden in the Garden State. It has attracted so many butterflies!

I am so enjoying this blog, and thank you for it. Lavender is one of my favorite herbs and favorite scents, and it even grows in my tiny front yard in the green and leafy Bronx.
