This is a lovely read. Although I have had lavender plants in my garden for over twenty years, there was a great deal i didn't know. Some of my plants weathered over the winter and others did not. I have planted them with companion thyme plants for years and had spectacular results. I also add moss roses to the pot. Did I mention I have a balcony garden?
The different varieties were reviewed and there were recipes too.
This book paired well with my aromatherapy class.
Highly reccommeded.

Wonderful Smelling Lavendar

Love the information that is in their book. Everything from growing in containers inside and out. Harvesting, drying, pressing into oil and storing. The uses, too many to count...bath bombs, and massage oil are my favorite!

Having a standard heading setting throughout this book would have done it wonders; spelling and grammatical errors also abounded.
