Lavandula stoechas 'Anouk' in the balcony garden, May 12th, 2012

Lavandula angustifolia

 Lavender (possibly 'Hidcote') growing below the grape arbour at the community garden

Lavender i love you lavender

I admit it. I kept this photo on the front page far too long (2 months) as In season is supposed to change with the times & feature seasonal flora & food at their peak.

But the lavender needs a rest now so I'll move the photos and text here:

Lavandula angustifolia  'Hidcote' blooming on the balcony in June.

July 26th, update - Though waning, the lavender still has a few blossoms. So I'm going to keep these photos on the front page a few more days. I do think every garden needs at least one lavender plant -- for sight, scent, touch, taste and yes, even sound (bzzzzy bees visit it often).
