Lavender Munstead (English Lavender), Culinary & Medicinal Herbs,
Munstead Lavender (Lavandula angustifolia) is a Northern-hardy dwarf strain of English Lavender that bears thick racemes of blue flowers. English Lavender is one of the richest essential oils, meaning more fragrance power both fresh and dried. Munstead, grown for its compact habit and earlier blooming flowers, is one of the best English Lavender varieties. The fresh leaves and flowers of lavender are most known for their relaxing scent, which can be used to make a soothing tea or in baking, in homemade butter and soaps, or for herb sachets. It also adds a unique flavor to cakes and sweets. Dried, it is added to potpourris, sachets, and perfumes. Munstead can grow up to 12 to 18 inches high and up to 24 inches wide, with small, strongly scented foliage, as strongly scented as the bloom. Bees and butterflies love it.
