I have been cutting lavender blooms from my garden for years. This shot was taken July 9th. I just noticed the difference from this shot taken just 2 or 3 weeks earlier. Wake up Christine!
Grannie Annie sorry to be confusing. I am just pointing out what the lavender flowers look like weeks apart. I just never noticed or looked closely enough. Which do you prefer? The one with the pen dries nicely. The fuller bloom seems to just get spent, doesn't last. But they both look good.
When is the right time to pick lavender if you're going to save it? I brought some into the house to put in a vase and two days later it was all dried up.

Wonderful lavender! And I see what you mean! Hugs, Valerie
It looks neat and serene
The one with the pen is the most beautiful picture Christine.
I bought lavender packet seeds yet even they can't be grown. We don't have lavender plants in our country.
Interesting. Yes, it does mature. Do you ever dry some of the lavender? Wonderful Monday post!
I am confused so I hope you will explain your point. It is easy to see they are different but that is all I know.

It's interesting the difference a couple of weeks makes. I prefer the fuller blooms

I love lavender flowers :D
I like the first one more..
So is it the same stems just photographed several weeks apart? I love how lavender dries.
I guess I like the first more, as it looks fresh and vibrant.
Both cuttings are lovely; lavender is one of my favorites.
I used to have lavender here. They are wonderful plants.
Kathy they are different stems
They must smell lovely.
They are still lovely in spite of the changes, Christine.
Lavender is great. You must have some nice plants in your garden.
Geniales fotos te mando un beso.

The first one looks more luxuriant.
I love lavender.
