Can't help to associate Lavender with romance, probably due to it's purple colour and aromatic smell.
Visited Willakenzie Lavender Farm during Lavender Festival in mid of July, i was totally immersed in the overwhelming beauty and the aroma of the Lavendar field that the farm has to offer.

BTW, it was new to me that there were many bees found in the farm, should have expected since it was so aromatic, the bees must have been attracted by the fragrance of the Lavender. :P
It was a nice weather when we visited the farm, not too hot nor cool, just right for us to have a joyful afternoon picking our Lavender. I have to tell the girls that if they were nice, the bees will be nice to them as well, only then they dare to go near and go in the farm. :)

We brought home a bundle of Lavender in mixture colours of purple, white and pink which make a nice deco in the house with pleasant scent. :)
I love them too...after few days they will start to fall off the stalk. You can hit all the buds out like the 'beras'...let it dry properly...and keep them in small sacks..and mine still last till now..lol
