Hang with me and listen to my love of lavender. You will be hooked by the end. I did forget to mention, get organic plants whenever possible for topical use or for ingestion. Why not use the best quality if you can? This can be going for a walk in your hood and finding it for free! Also an FYI that some parks do spray pesticides so be careful or do some local research. Herbs can be affordable and why not use something that is grown locally?
