Munstead English Lavender (Lavandula angustifolia 'Munstead')
Munstead English Lavender, Lavandula angustifolia 'Munstead', is a compact, sun loving lavender cherished for its soft purple blue flower spikes, fragrant gray green foliage, and reliable performance in well drained gardens. Plants form neat, rounded mounds that tuck easily along paths, at the front of borders, and in containers, bringing classic cottage garden charm and soothing scent into smaller spaces. Early season blooms rise above the foliage in late spring to early summer, drawing in pollinators and creating a gentle yet clear focal point wherever you want a low, refined accent in full sun.
Distinctive Features
Munstead English Lavender typically grows about 12 to 18 inches tall and 18 to 24 inches wide, forming a dense, shrub like clump with woody bases and soft, leafy shoots toward the tips. Slender flower spikes carry many small purple blue florets that read as a soft band of color when the plant is in bloom, while narrow gray green leaves provide fine texture and a silvery cast that looks attractive even between flushes of flowers. The combination of modest height, classic flower color, and strong fragrance makes Munstead a long time favorite for edging, low hedging, and high visibility plantings around patios and entries.
Growing Conditions
- Light: Prefers full sun with at least 6 hours of direct light daily for best flowering, compact growth, and strong fragrance.
- Soil: Thrives in well drained, lean to average soils; avoids heavy, wet ground and performs best in sandy or gravelly conditions that keep roots on the dry side.
- Water: Water regularly after planting to establish; once rooted in, water deeply but infrequently, allowing the top of the soil to dry between waterings.
- Hardiness: Well suited to many temperate regions where English lavender is grown outdoors, especially when provided with sharp drainage in winter.
- Size: Generally forms a mound about 12 to 18 inches tall and 18 to 24 inches wide at maturity, depending on climate and care.
- Growth Rate: Moderate grower that fills in steadily without quickly outgrowing beds, borders, or containers.
Ideal Uses
- Edging and Low Hedges: Plant in a row along walks, drives, or bed edges to create a low, fragrant ribbon of gray green foliage and purple blooms.
- Containers and Patio Pots: Excellent in clay pots, troughs, and mixed planters where the compact mound and upright flower spikes add height, scent, and color.
- Front of Border Accent: Ideal for the front of sunny borders where its neat habit and soft flowers form a dependable visual anchor.
- Herb and Scent Gardens: Perfect near seating areas, entries, and paths so aromatic foliage and blooms can be brushed and enjoyed up close.
- Cottage and Mediterranean Gardens: Mix with roses, salvias, and other sun loving perennials for classic cottage combinations, or pair with stone and gravel for a simple, Mediterranean feel.
Low Maintenance Care
- Watering: After establishment, water when the top inch of soil is dry; avoid constant moisture or soggy conditions that can lead to root and crown problems.
- Pruning: Shear lightly after the main flush of bloom to remove spent spikes and maintain a dense mound; avoid cutting back into old woody stems that have no leaves.
- Fertilizing: Requires only light feeding; in spring, apply a small amount of balanced, slow release fertilizer if soil is very lean, since excessive nutrients can cause soft, floppy growth.
- Mulching: Use a thin layer of gravel or coarse mulch around the base to improve drainage and keep foliage off wet soil, avoiding heavy organic mulches against the stems.
- Seasonal Care: In colder climates, provide excellent drainage and a sunny, sheltered spot; in late winter or early spring, tidy lightly to remove any winter damage and keep plants compact.
Why Choose Munstead English Lavender?
- Classic Cottage Favorite: Soft purple blue blooms and silvery foliage bring traditional lavender charm to paths, borders, and containers.
- Compact, Tidy Habit: Naturally rounded form is easy to manage in small gardens, narrow beds, and patio plantings.
- Aromatic Foliage: Fragrant gray green leaves add soothing scent and soft texture to outdoor living areas and can be used for simple cut and dried projects.
- Sun and Heat Tolerant: Performs well in hot, bright exposures when planted in well drained soil or raised beds.
- Versatile Design Use: Works as edging, in mixed borders, in herb and scent gardens, or as a container feature wherever you want dependable lavender color, fragrance, and a refined focal point in full sun.
With its compact habit, soft purple blue flower spikes, and fragrant gray green foliage, Munstead English Lavender is an excellent choice for adding classic lavender beauty, scent, and a low maintenance focal point to sunny borders, pathways, and containers.

Great. Just as good as fancy stuff But dose not pair with peppermint.
Size: 16 Ounce (Pack of 1)
If you're making Macha lattes or mixing the match with anything, this is perfect! No need to buy the expensive ceremonial level stuff unless you're drinking ONLY Macha. This is honestly perfect for everything.
Mix 2 of its provided spoonfuls with 1/2 cup of kettle hot water and stir, maybe even add more matcha until a bit thick, pour over a glass full of ice (should fill half the glass if full of ice) as the last half as milk with a pump of your favorite syrup. Mine is strawberry, my gf's is Vanilla. Peppermint was not good, though fyi.

Makes It Green; Doesn't Taste as Clean
Size: 16 Ounce (Pack of 1)
It is matcha. It makes things green. For all intents and purposes, this is enough for the typical matcha user. For those with a bit of an upturned nose to anything that's "inferior" to matcha, then this is not for you. By taste, this product is not as good on the tastebuds as, say, Jade Leaf. It doesn't do matcha justice and, in my opinion, does not mix that well when making lattes. In terms of color, this one is also paling in comparison when by itself, but when added to other things as a flavoring agent or colorant, then it does the job as well as it can.
I am not saying this matcha is bad at all. I think if it comes down to drinking, save your money and get some Jade Leaf or equivalent ceremonial grade matcha. You WILL taste the difference. Now if you're going to be making a lot of baked goods or cooked goods? This wouldn't be that bad—you don't want an overbearing matcha taste anyway and the shade of green this produces is not THAT bad.

Contemporary translation of a set of Christian classics
Format: Hardcover
How did the New Testament come to be formed? What books were left out? What did some of those books say? These are some of the questions on the minds of many curious people today. Too often, local congregations ignore these questions, to the detriment of the church. But these questions about Christian origins are very, very real in the hearts and minds of many people today.
Now, from one of the most significant writers about Christian origins today comes a completely new edition of the Apostolic Fathers -- the letters of Clement, the letters of Ignatius, the letter of Polycarp, the Martyrdom of Polycarp, the Didache, the Epistle of Barnabas, the fragments of Papias and Quadratus, the Epistle to Diognetus, and the Shepherd of Hermas. These were early Christian writings that are generally attributed to church leaders of the late first and early second centuries CE (and, in most cases, are probably authentic). Clement, for example, was an early leader in Rome (circa 96 CE); Ignatius wrote a number of letters to churches in various cities (circa 110 CE), sort of following in the footsteps of Paul.
This two-volume set replaces the classic edition of the Apostolic Fathers in the Loeb Classical Library edited by Kirsopp Lake nearly a century ago. As with all books in the Loeb Classical Library, the original (in this case, Greek) text is presented on the left-hand pages, and an English translation is presented on the right. The text is extremely readable, and the introductions to each of the books are clear, succinct, and to the point.
Some of these books almost made it into the New Testament! The epistles of Clement are found in some early New Testament manuscripts and were widely read in the early churches. The Shepherd of Hermas may have been the most widely read book by early Christians. Several of these books were probably written before some of books in the New Testament. In an age in which people are asking questions about the origins of Christianity and the authority of the scriptures, it is crucial that we have at least a basic understanding of our early history. In my mind, a decent familiarity with the Apostolic Fathers -- as well as the Dead Sea Scrolls and the Nag Hammadi library -- is essential.
This two-volume set is extremely valuable. Ehrman's critical textual work, his contemporary translations, and his up-to-date introductions are a welcome addition to current literature. The trained scholar will delight in having a new critical edition of the Greek text . . . but an ordinary lay reader could also profit tremendously from reading some of these early Christian writings that were not deemed to be sufficiently close to the first generation of apostles to make the cut into the New Testament.
