Where Can I Buy Edible Lavender?

I don't mean made out of iceing I mean the real flower.

Where Can I Buy Edible Lavender?
There are several varieties of lavender, and all of them are edible. English lavender is considered the best for teas and French for flavorings, although any lavender will work.





Most garden centers carry lavender. Check out on-line garden centers like Springhill, or Gurneys, as these catalog-based firms will frequently carry different varieties, and they are considerably less expensive than your local garden center.





If you are not in a position to plant or grow lavender, I would suggest you check your local apothecary store/alternative health/herbalist store, as they will more than likely have sprigs or sachets of untainted, organic edible lavender.





I do not recommend getting lavender from a commercially-sold lavender sachet or potpourri, as the aromas are frequently artificially enhanced, and can be aroma, flavor, or otherwise contaminated by other ingredients.





Here are two internet outfit that sells lavender in bulk at reasonable prices, and I am sure there are others if you do a quick Google search.

Reply:I have never seen nor heard of 'edible lavender' but I do know that my favorite tea shop sells at least one tea that is flavored with lavender ... it's called 'lavender earl grey' and it is WONDERFUL. Their website is www.perennialtearoom.com
