Great plant for the NW, lavender! Showy and colorful, lavender also smells amazing and adds gorgeous color and texture to planting beds, rock gardens and water features. Planted as a mass planting, lavender makes a striking display of fragrant summer blossoms. 

Additionally, lavender can be dried send used as a potpourri, in sachets or as a beautiful cut flower bouquet, filling your home with its luscious scent! Added to the oil of your choice lavender makes a soothing essential oil for tired achy muscles.
