Lavender may just be one of the best scents ever. Apparently I'm not alone in that thought, because I recently read a study which claimed to find that lavender and pumpkin were the two scents that resulted in the highest level of male arousal. So now you know. Dubious research aside, this is white flowered dwarf version, no more than a foot tall. As with all lavenders, not a big fan of being too wet. Zone 5
