Description

Blue/grey lavender - Lavandula Angustifolia - imported from Provence, France.

Wonderfully fragrant lavender is an incredibly useful and versatile plant. It is believed to be a natural anti-depressant and relaxant. In addition, it is helpful for relieving insomnia, headaches, and stress. Lavender has been used for centuries, all over the world, for everything from soothing burns and insect bites to healing acne and athlete's foot.

Culinary use: for tea blending and herbs de Provence.

One quarter pound (4 oz) of French lavender. Lavender is perfect for making sachets, potpourri, sleep/eye pillows, bath herbs, weddings (for tossing at bride and groom), bath and body, aromatherapy, dryer sachets, a natural replacement for moth balls, etc. Bluish/grey green in color and a very strong lavender scent. The buds are about size of rice and is very clean with practically no stems.

The buds are extremely fragrant and have approximately a 2 year shelf life when kept in a cool, dry, dark place in a sealed container or bag. If the fragrance fades give the buds a squeeze to release the oil inside... it will give them a renewed scent.

*Great recipe for Natural "Green" Lavender Household Cleaner

Fill a jar about one-quarter full of blue/grey lavender buds and then fill the rest of the jar with white vinegar. Place the lid on the jar and leave in a warm spot (a windowsill is a good place) for about two weeks. Shake daily. Strain out the lavender buds (you can put these in the compost pile). Use your new cleaner to clean kitchen counters (repels and also kills ants), windows, etc. It is also a good spray into the air around the grill to repel flies, but be careful not to get downwind of it because the vinegar may sting your eyes.
