Description:
English lavender that is grown in the Provence region of France. Our No. 1 grade ("Super Blue") lavender has a characteristic blue-purple color and a sharp, piney-lavender scent. Lavender flower buds are about the size of a grain of rice and are not on stems. This lavender is recommended for jar potpourris and culinary uses, but may also be used for sachets, dream pillows, and bath herbs.
Lavender #1 vs Lavender #2:
Our lavender is graded primarily by color and then by application.
Our #1 lavender is a good medium-blue color, with a more subtle floral lavender fragrance. It is best utilized for culinary dishes (particularly savory ones) and in display potpourri and crafts.
Our #2 lavender is a grayish-blue color, with a strong and bright lavender scent. It is preferred for sachets, pillows, soaps, and other uses where the fragrance is desired above color.
