This is one of my favorite lavenders, 'Goodwin Creek' lavender Lavendula x 'ginginsii' from Goodwin Creek Gardens in Oregon. I would use the flowers for potpourri not for food consumption. It is a beautiful plant and makes it through our winters indoors just fine.
I have written about this particular lavender more than a few times! Here are my previous posts:

Hope you are having a great day wherever you may be! Talk to you later!

Glad you posted a photo of your Goodwin Creek...I bought 3 in May and they look totally different. Thinking the greenhouse had them mislabeled. The leaves are very long with pronounced "pinked" edges (think there is a proper term for that shape but it escapes me now.) Color is the same though - silvery.
The plants appear very healthy but slow to gain any height & no buds yet. Looks like I need to go through my books??
With most of our garden area in river rock, I've been doing more and more container gardening! I love the looks of it.
I put my mint in containers because it is so invasive. I plant petunias and marigolds in the oversize pots with them and I really like the way it looks!
I'll take a close up of the leaf for you, Pat.
You don't have much time to have a garden, but I'm sure the containers are cheering you up, Peggy.
Mint in containers is the only way to go, Missy! I remember the rabbits loved our petunias at my mom's house. Maybe that's why I don't plant them, but I do love marigolds, 'lemon gem' are the edible kind.
Thanks for stopping by, ladies!
