| Flowers, buds, dead petals, seed pods on the way. |

| But bees love them. |
And crushed, making them even more of a mess, they smell like grandma's closet.

Las flores de lavanda, vistas de cerca, son desaliñadas. Se abren como sea, sin esperar su turno; las flores acabadas retienen su pétalos muertos, Pero a las abejas les encantan.
Y aplastadas, huelen a la casa de mi abuelita.
I loved pillow cases aired on lavender bushes then straight onto the bed!
ReplyDeleteI always have little bags of dried lavender. I never heard of airing things on live bushes! I'll have to try that!
DeleteJust make sure they Things are not damp or they'll stain!Sun-dried, then tossed over a bush for the afternoon, then the bed, then dream...
DeleteWood shavings, like cedar, make lovely scented sachets, too.
