The plant is blooming in a weird time (September through February) and
giving just 2-3 stems per week but its alive and it makes me happy :)

Lavender in my garden
A couple of years ago we drove 4 hours up north for a
lavender festival to see those beautiful purple fields. While people from
cooler areas might not see it as a big deal, for us in the low desert with hot
and dry summers it is very special. I bought a little potted plant of lavender
as a souvenir and planted it in my garden later with not much hope for it to
survive.
Surprisingly, the lavender bush is thriving and happy! I am
still learning how to care for this but I was so happy to gather some flower
stems.

I'm really enjoying the design and layout
of your site. It's a very easy on the eyes which makes it much more enjoyable for me to come here and visit more often. Did you hire out a designer to create your theme?
Fantastic work!
Thank you! I created my own theme and layout.
