Lavender, Munstead 
Lavandula angustifolia
One of the most fragrant lavender varieties, with a very rounded, bushy habit and lots of flowers. Munstead is prized for edible flowers and its high oil content which is good for essential oils. Munstead is smaller than most lavender varieties, and blooms earlier than many. It is reputed to do better in warmer, drier climates as well. Click here for great lavender recipes!
