Lavender is in the Spotlight--Again!
I subscribe to a few magazines that I faithfully read every month. One of them happens to be Better Homes and Gardens. (You may have guessed this because I posted about one of their articles before.) Over the past year or so I think there has only been a few times that they haven't mentioned lavender. I have come to the conclusion that it must be one of their favorite plants/fragrances. And we at the lavender farm are happy they have come to our way of thinking!
May's issue of BHG spotlights lavender on page 132. It describes three planting zones that have different water needs: oasis zones, transitional zones and xeric zones. Lavender is part of the xeric zone, which means it needs little to no water once it is established. So not only will lavender make your home garden look and smell great, it will also help with your water conservation efforts!

When I started with YL, I never thought that I'd use Lavender on a daily basis, but it seems that it's just a great oil for so many things!
I love reading about lavender - I use it in so many ways. It is my very favorite along with the thieves products. Lavender reminds me of my childhood - I grew up in Belgium and my father had lavender bushes along the side of the house. smelling it brings back such wonderful memories of my childhood. Thank you Gary Young and the entire staff.
