This week we are finishing up the harvest of the remaining Angustifolia for drying and ultimately wreath making. We have cut and hung about 15000 bunches in all. The 250 Jean Davis white/pinkish plants produced almost 14 bundles per plant. The Hidcote and Twickel Purple were right around 12 per plant. We are pushing against [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[These bundles were shipped to Raleigh, NC. As you can see, the color (dark blue-purple) is very striking. Since the stems are 10-12 inches long, the flowers work best in a vase that is 5-8 inches tall (shown here in a galvanized bucket - 6 bundles total). Purchase Now! The window for this variety won&#8217;t [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[The 2008 harvest of the English Lavender (angustifolia) should begin in three weeks or so. Harvest will be a little later this year due to the cold and wet winter on Whidbey Island.
The first fresh flower offered will be Twickle Purple, a medium length, (12-14&#8243; stem) dark blue variety. This will be followed by several [...]]]></description>

The beginning of Fall marks the end of the lavender year. The lavender plants will take a much needed rest. It has been a wonderfully productive year. As usual, we discovered things that we didn&#8217;t know. We also confirmed that we have been blessed with talented and dedicated associates. Nothing would have happened had it [...]]]></description>

Saturday was a great day. We had a  couple of revelations that should really benefit us next year. We used the Japanese tea harvester on the Twickel with great success. We had shied away from it because it does not do a very good job of shaping plants, especially the smaller ones. Alex, Mario, [...]]]></description>

The boiler from hell. Doug and Bruce installed the final necessary piece on the boiler. It is the exhaust vent to the heavens. I am worried that it looks so much like the landing beacon for the Oak Harbor Airport that we may start getting unwanted traffic. It looks like other things too! We will [...]]]></description>

Six days straight and about 300 hours of labor and we have harvested 10,000 Grosso plants. Right now it looks like 200+ lbs. of oil (100 quarts). I am not sure what my specific expectation was for the grosso by itself; but with half the plants it produced the same amount of oil as the [...]]]></description>
