Spanish Lavender

Spanish Lavender

purchased from Al's Garden World Summer 2011
blooms profusely in the spring
native to Mediterranean and North Africa
also called "French Lavender"
18-24" tall (3' in bloom)
perennial
zones 8-11

We use this with clipping wrapped in scarves and put in the bath tub for a yummy smelling bath. The smell of lavender has always reminded me of freshly washed babies in their bath towels.
