Growing Tip:
Plant in a sunny spot with excellent drainage. Lavender performs best when roots are allowed to dry out between waterings, which helps prevent rot and supports healthy growth. 

 

Melissa is an English lavender valued for its soft, elegant coloring. Instead of the deep purples many people associate with lavender, it produces airy flower spikes in pale pink and creamy white tones. This gives the plant a light, calming presence that blends beautifully into cottage gardens, herb beds, and mixed borders.

Its fragrance and flavor are noticeably mild, which is exactly why Melissa is so popular for culinary use. In baking, teas, syrups, and herbal blends, it adds a delicate lavender note without overpowering other ingredients. If you’ve ever found traditional lavender too strong, this is often the variety that changes people’s minds. It allows you to enjoy lavender in the kitchen in a more balanced, approachable way.

Melissa grows into a naturally tidy, well-shaped plant, forming a compact, rounded shrub that requires very little maintenance to keep looking good. Because of this neat habit, it works especially well in borders, raised beds, herb gardens, and containers, where space and appearance both matter.

For best results, plant Melissa in full sun and well-drained soil. Like most English lavenders, it dislikes sitting in wet or heavy soil, especially in winter. Good drainage helps prevent root problems and helps the plant stay healthy and productive over time. When given plenty of sunlight and dry feet, Melissa will reward you with reliable blooms, strong growth, and high-quality harvests for both garden beauty and kitchen use.

Perfect for privacy!
Color: Black, Size: 3 Panel, Color: Black, Size: 3 Panel
This 3 panel room divider came in in good shape. I am pleased with how it looks. It feels a little cheap, but I was aware of that from the reviews I read. I really like the dual hinges, which is one main reason I went with this one. I also got this one for the 3 panels and the black color. I plan to use it to give the guest rooms a little privacy for when they get up to go to the restroom. I took a few pictures when I was playing around with it and attached those.

Exactly what I was looking for.
Color: Brown, Size: 3 Panel, Color: Brown, Size: 3 Panel
Although other reviews found this item was too lightweight and flimsy, frankly it was exactly what I was looking for. I needed to partition my workspace off from the rest of the room and I wanted something that I could easily attach to the back of an unfinished bookcase as part of creating a private space. It was perfect. Lightweight easy to handle and I didn't mind putting some nails through it. Great price point for what I needed.
