Lovely lavender
Under the summertime sun
Soaking in the rays.

Truthfully, I do not have a green thumb.
The lavender bushes that I have outside my place basically just grew and grew with minimal care. I water them every so often during the warmer months. During the winter days, the plant will wither down to brown and brittle twigs.
Springtime arrived and my lavender begins to wake up. Slowly, but steadily, green leaves and flower peek through, while the brown twigs disappear.
I love lavender! It smells good and it’s my favorite color.

I have a small edible lavender plant, but it’s not doing much at the moment.

I used to have enormous lavender plants in my yard. I had read somewhere that they should be pruned back in the fall. Yeah, they all died. I should have left them alone. I bought a new plant this year, the first one in many years since then.

Love the smell of lavender. The flower and oil can be very strong but so relaxing at the same time.

We have a few lavender plants in our driveway part of the garden. They are so lovely when they are in bloom, and really give off that lovely scent as you come into the house. Also the bees love them!

Wow! Very nice that the lavender rejuvenates itself when the warmer months return.
