    Question Lavender

    I was thinking of planting some Lavender. I not only like the smell, I like the way the plant looks. Could anyone tell me what I can use or make with the lavender and how to do it? I thought I might clip some twigs and put it in cheesecloth to put in a bath? You all seem to be good at growing herbs. This will be the first time growing any kind of herbs. Thanks for any suggestions.

    Lavender is one of my absolute favourites!!! Thanks for all the great ideas Carolyn and Sara. I know years ago women used to lay their laundry over lavender to dry. Imagine the wonderful scent on your clothes!

    Thanks for all of the tips on Lavender ladies. I have a lavender plant that I got last year and have never done anything with the flowers, etc. Just never knew WHAT to do.

    Thanks again.
