I’ve got thyme, sage, mint, lemon balm, sweet grasses and roses coming through! How about you?

    Do you use plant food or fertiliser? Because I’ve recently learned that lavender hates food! They need gritty soil.

    Baking and making nice tasting soft drinks, mostly :D

      I use worm compost, and i didn’t know that. Huh… i guess I’ll see how they do with less love. How often do you water it?

      Oooo, I’ve got a great lavender cookie recipe that’s so delicate.

        In the current heat wave? Quite a lot! I’ve kept it partially protected from the very glaring sun it’s doing a lot better.

        And lavender attracts pollinators!!
