Still warm, but it is supposed to cool off later today. The unexpected warm spell did hurry the lavender along, particularly the Melissa. This pinkish/white English lavender is one of the best culinary lavenders. It is approaching "bloom" stage when we stop cutting for bundles and cut for making oil. It also makes a fine bouquet, by itself and when paired with Munstead or Folgate. Again, both excellent culinary and crafting lavenders. We have these bouquets for $20 (it includes the metal vase), or by the bundle at $5 each or five for $20. River Road Flower Farm at 1364 River Road in Sequim from 10 until 8 every day (but closed on Mondays for farm chores).
