i think for as long as you need - i sometimes keep mine for a year and they always smell fine and work great. but normally you run out before this and i only have mine for about 3 months . i think just untill you run out. but if your worried and heard 6 mnths go with that





ylang ylang and lavender are great for relaxation great choice!


In HARRY POTTER, how did JK Rowling describe Lavender Brown's appearance?

Did she describe her as being pale and having blonde hair, brown hair, black hair? Is she light or dark skinned?





I can't remember JK ever actually describing what she looked like.


Thanks (:

I can't recall her ever being truly described in the books and Harry Potter Lexicon doesn't mention a physical description. Although if you are interested it includes links and notes to exact parts of the books so I put the link below.
Reply:Well---i dont know----JK ROwling never actually gave a physicl descrition of her----but to me----she seems very english----probably a pure blood--born and brought up in england---with--lets see--blond hair-most probably
Reply:I agree that she was never described in the books. However, "Brown" is what I would term a "very English" name, and it is no surprise to me, after meeting many Browns throughout my life, that she appears wholly Anglo-Saxon.

Reply:I really didn't remeber her decribing Lavender very much but i always thought that Lavender Brown is just like The Parvati's sisters. Indian but with a raise in England
Reply:HAHAHA!


That's true!


I don't think that she EVER describes her!


I always imagined her to be Prunella from Arthur!

Have a look if you want hahahah!
Reply:She actually never physically described Lavender. In one of the movies, I think maybe the 3rd, she was portrayed with dark skin, but the books never said anything about what she looks like.

Is it true that when you mix rosemary, lavender, and jojoba oil into your shampoo your hair grows?

i have been using this method for a period of six months and my hair grew rapidly, like about 4 inches of hair is their somethign else i can use beside that?

Is it true that when you mix rosemary, lavender, and jojoba oil into your shampoo your hair grows?
It is a myth.
Reply:it helps growth because they are supposed to be good conditioners for ur hair if u use it as a supplement to your washing schedule.... So, definately I wouldn't stop doing it if you're aiming for growth, but there is something that WILL help your hair strength and growth in general and that is hair, skin and nail vits you can find at a health supply shop.
Reply:I've never heard that before but I want my hair to grow longer so I'm gonna try that where did you get all that stuff just at a local store and you mixed it right into your shampoo?
Reply:Hair grows anyway, love, whether you add oils to your shampoo or not. Growing is the only thing hair CAN do....





Healthy hair normally grows about 6 inches a year in average and faster during the summer than during any other season. So if you've grown 4 inches in the last 6 month it's nothing but normal.





What you can do though is invest in a good range of hair products, and limit breakage and split ends so that you need fewer trims and can actually keep your new growth.


Can you help me name my under 6 girls soccer team. Our colors are lavender and deep purple.?

I know it's a silly question...but it's really hard!The girls want something like The Butterflies or The Princesses. The team parents want something a bit more tough, or at least not sooo girly! I'm trying to please them all and could use some suggestions! Thanks!

Reply:The Purple Flash. Or along those lines. You can see I'm on the parent's side. What's in a name: Respect, motivation and, perhaps, a little intimidation. And no, I'm not one of those adult freaks who would whip their kids or attack a referee for a victory.
Reply:The Royal Pains cause purple is the color of royalty and pain means they will inflict damage to the other team

Does lavender oil work on acne scars?

Someone told me this,


how should i rub it in?


what other things are there?

Does lavender oil work on acne scars?
You need something with hydroquinone. It usually comes in a perscription. I use Lustra for my blotches after I had my son. It is also for treating acne scars. This is the best stuff I have ever used and I have tried many, many products.
Reply:Yes, lavender oil works well on

Stimulating growth of skinny lavender?

I have a lavender plant in a pot, which I over-wintered inside. It barely made it, but is alive, one stalk of it at least. It's a skinny, sickly looking thing, but I LOVE lavender and have grown attached to this plant. Repotted it earlier this spring in better soil, put it outside getting morning sun. Should I pinch/prune to stimulate growth? Feed? We live in the mid-atlantic region. Any suggestions would be most appreciated! :)

Stimulating growth of skinny lavender?
Unfortunately, without knowing which species of lavender, this is tough to answer. ...so I will try to generalize...


Most Lavandula like little water all year, not just in winter. They are very draught tolerant. Of course, if it is stunted and suffering, this may not be the best time to quit watering it. I would however begin to acclimate it to more than just morning sun. Watch it for signs of overexposure in harsh afternoon and evening sun, but otherwise give it as much as it can handle, until eventually, it can stand full exposure. As far as the pruning goes, I would probably pinch anything that doesn't look like it will take a lot of energy to save. Force the plant to spend it's time and energy on the parts that are the most alive. Remember that when you repotted it, if you teased the roots as you should, some will naturally be damaged. That's actually fine as long as you aren;t overworking the plant trying to regrow tissue from too many areas. I would also suggest top-dressing with bone meal, a drastically under-utilized item to have in your arsenal. Ahh... I see I have rambled on again... Anyway, goodluck.

Reply:both of your ideas are perfert! cut it back about halfway and give it a nice slow release food like osmocote, available at lowes. in about a month start hitting it with miracle gro every couple of weeks. i betcha it does great. ya know, lavender is a perennial, it can stay outdoors all winter if planted in the ground. it might do better if you plant it and leave it outside next winter. it will die down to the ground when it gets cold but come back the following spring :)


Is it possible to root woody herbs, such as sage or lavender, from cuttings?

It's possible, but not real easy. I've had more luck by layering, not cutting. Just push a stem into the ground; put a rock on it if it doesn't stay in. It will root in a month or two and you can cut it off and make a new plant out of it.

The way layering has worked best for me is to take the longest branch from the base of the bush, score the stem not quite to the center (careful not to cut right through). This wound creates an area to heal and in doing so will be where roots are produced. Before covering it up apply some rooting hormone powder (available at Home Depot) to the cut area, then bury that section still attached to the plant and let the tip come up out of the soil again. You will need to leave it there the entire season. Don't nudge it or try to peek to check because the first roots are very fragile and you'll snap them off again. Once roots are formed, you can sever the stem by putting a shovel in the ground straight down to cut it off the parent plant.
