I have the most beautiful lavender bush that was given to me by my friend Sonja. It is a Margaret Roberts varietal and it is flowering like mad at the moment. Not wanting to waste the beautiful buds I made a batch of Lavender Sugar. I love lavender so much that I have a lavender garden showcasing the different varietals. So far I have planted English and French and I hope to expand the garden one bush at a time. When ever we go to 96 Winery Road I pick lavender to put next to my bed.
