Lavender is everywhere here. Our monthly market has a stall where they specialise in lavender and there is always a good selection presented.
I have discovered that there are diffrent forms of lavender, being sold here. This type looks good, but I noticed it does not grow so well as the normal lavender.
Of course our market has everything and you can always buy samples for in you handbag, or under the pullow in the bedroom, or whatever. As long as it keeps the mosquitos and their relations away, that is the main thing.

I have never seen a deer fly but would probably not recognise them.

I found them. We call them Bremsen and the females sting and draw blood, most unpleasant.

I got bit last week when I was clearing out my roses. They really hold tight to you skin.
