Nice bit of information. last night I was reading that using privet hedge wood chippings with leaves on is the worst thing you can do around vegetables and it can make them as poisonous as cyanide, so i don't know if I really want to risk eating it with knowing this.
I have some lavender seeds that I want to get growing but I think that I have left it to late for the season. I love butterflies and i was going to make a butterfly garden instead of growing my own veggies.
:D
