It was tiny, but hey it was harvested and now is bundled and waiting to be hung. It's a new variety for me this year, the colour is beautiful, but the stalks are short and stubby, who cares once plucked for use! Lavandula Angustifolia Aromatico Blue.
I also harvested about 100 more wild roses... and strung them all up to dry, I'm slowly pruning the unruly bush back... but the amount of buds still on it is amazing!!!
Also amazing is the amount of buds in the rain garden's French Lavender section after what 4'+ of snow did to my plants... I had thought about filling the whole thing in, good thing I'm busy and have far too many other projects that need attention! Not only has the Lavender come back fighting but so has my sage, I've never had crops so big!!!
I'm thinking my next few salts and fizzies/bombs are going to have some dried honeysuckle and dried rose petals in them!!!
