About this genus:

Lavandula (La-van-du-la) is a genus of 40 wild species plus a dozen or more hybrids and hundreds of named cultivars that are in the mint family. Lavender's claim to fame is the intoxicating aroma of the leaves and flower buds. The name Lavandula is derived from the Latin word lavar for to wash because the ancient Greeks washed themselves with lavender oil to clean themselves and to smell fresh. Although the Greeks called Lavandual Nardus, after the Syrian city of Naarda!

Plants in the genus Lavandula are native from southern Europe into Africa and east from the Arabian penninsula all the way to India, but it has been cultivated by humans all over the world since ancient times. During Roman times, flowers were sold for 100 denarii per pound, which was about the same as a month's wages for a farm laborer, or fifty haircuts from the local barber. One whiff of the essential oils of a lavender plant (called lavandulin) and you will understand why it is so sought after! The odor is pleasant, relaxing, and is thought to cure headaches, help sleeping, and repel mosquitos. In addition, lavender oil is anti-inflammatory and antiseptic. Because of this, lavender oil can be found in thousands of products from soaps to perfumes, skin creams, potpourri, air fresheners, aromatherapy pillows, sachets and a myriad of other scented goodies. Lavender oil is also added to syrup, cheese, milk, baked goods, tea, desserts and is a component of the herbes de Provence herb blend used in gourmet cooking. Although all Lavandula species are pleasantly fragrant, it is English lavender (Lavandula angustifolia) that is considered to have the best scent.

Lavender also refers to a colour...a pale blue-purple shade. Like the scent, the colour is associated with relaxation and is very popular in clothing, interior decorating, and paints/dyes. It is worth noting, though, that some Lavandula flowers deviate from this hue and can be pink, blue, purple or white.

If that weren't enough, Lavandula is a fantastic ornamental plant often featuring attractive silvery leaves (due to the fine hairs that contain the essential oils). Lavandula flowers are small but are produced in dense clusters (inflorescences) on the tips of the flower stalk. Not only are these flowers beautiful, but they attract bees and butterflies. They are very drought tolerate and prefer sunny well drained sites. So, it is funny to find some of them so well in our over-cast, wet clay garden! We've found a few cultivars that do quite well, and they are for sale here.

Be careful when looking at photos of Lavandula in garden books - in reality Lavanadula tend to get quite woody after a while. If you aren't growing them for the fragrance or a specific look may we suggest Nepeta instead? It looks almost identical, It won't go woody, and tolerates the wet much more!

Try pairing Lavandula with other fragrant plants like Buddleia, Dianthus, Nepeta, or other silver-leaved or dark-leaved plants like Achillea, Euphorbia or Sedum. Also, I think they pair well with Rosa!

Easy to set up & works great
Style: Single Arm, Size: 13"-34"
It was super easy to get set up, came with all the hardware ypu need to install multiple ways. Holds my monitor securely and is still easy to move around. The adjustments are easy to access and have plenty of variation. Great purchase, such a reasonable price.

I love it!!
Style: Dual Arms, Size: 17"-33"
I love this product. I do a lot of gaming and you tube watching. At the same time a lot. With this I keep my desktop clear so I can have my notebooks there and can still have both my monitors up and running. Another plus is if I decide to sit on the couch and play the console I can turn the screen a full 180 degrees so I can setup you tube and play games on the T.V. using the console. The product itself feels to be of decent quality. It is not all plastic. The clamp is nice and strong.

Gets the job done. Just barely.
Style: Dual Arms, Size: 17"-33"
It holds up my monitor, but just barely, and without any confidence or finesse. I had to move on from my previous arm mounts, the HUANUO. Those claimed to hold up to a 30 inch monitor and support 20 pounds. When I upgraded to a Samsung Odyssey Neo G8, it could no longer perform its duties. The gas shock was up to task, but the final adjustment piece that tilts it up or down was a hard down. Queue this piece of hardware! 22 pounds is more than 20, and 32 is more than 30. This time I'm not even technically out of spec. The clamping force seems more than adequate to hold this to my desk. I will, at this point, basically walk you through how I feel about this mount, based on the order of installation instructions. The way it goes together means that you will have to pull your desk out to maneuver the clamp in place before snugging it back up to the wall, a point in the HUANO's favor since it had a clever leveraging mechanism that lets you hang it with your desk still against the wall. The way cords route through the arms close to the base means that you have to route them before you put the swivel arm on the base. This is because it has a screw at the front and back to secure the cover, and the angle/height are such that you cannot fit a screwdriver into the bottom one after you mount it. While not impossible to do with it installed, it would involve a right-angle screwdriver. They provide one of those, but the screwdriver bit of it is on the long shaft, and you would need it on the short shaft to get to that screw. The way the swivel arms mount on the base is less than ideal as well. The arm slips onto a robust metal hub, and you tighten a screw that pushes against a plastic tab that makes it harder or easier to move. The location for this screw faces the wall. So you must turn the arm at an extreme angle to make it tighter or looser. Not a big deal, but noticeable. Top arms go on smoothly, cable routing is simple and easy. No complaints about this section. Mounting the monitor. The instructions are to mount the plate to the monitor, and then slide the plate onto the holder and secure it with the screw. I did this for neither of my monitors, although I tried it for my second. My big monitor went smoothly by mounting the bracket ahead of time and just forcing the arm down into position while my monitor rested on my desk. I tried this for my second bracket, but it was much harder to do with the monitor in a vertical orientation. So then I tried to do it the way the instructions wanted. I would have been able to do so, but my monitor has the mounting location set into the back of the monitor. This means that you can't mount it flush and then slide it on because you don't have clearance. So I tried to use the spacers. The spacers aren't spacious enough and the screws bottomed before snugging. While I'm not saying that solution wouldn't have technically worked, I instead reverted back to mounting the bracket first. This time I laid my monitor flat on the desk, reduced the tension in the shock greatly, and placed it into position that way. At the end when it's complete and setup? It works. It will hold the G8. But just barely. The G8 uses an adapter to go from the monitor mounting points to VESA 100. This adapter sticks out quite a bit from the monitor, which means the weight is further away from the mounting point. Getting the tilt adjustment to hold involved a bigger allen wrench and cranking it further than it seems like it was meant to go. It groaned, but it held. It wants to dip if you mess with it, so I crank it again. Will it one day totally fail on me and point my monitor at my desk? Maybe. But it works on day 1, so that's a start.

The Best Cable Management Solution for IT Work — Reusable, Reliable, and Professional
Size: 150Pk - 8" x 1/2", Style: Cord Wrap Cable Ties, Color: Black and Gray
TL;DR: I’ve been using these VELCRO Brand cable ties for years as an IT field tech. They hold tight, are endlessly reusable, and keep cables tidy. Great for both home and professional setups. Full Review: As an IT field technician, I’ve tried countless ways to keep cables organized, and these VELCRO Brand cable ties are simply the best. They’re reusable, strong, and easy to reposition — ideal for network racks, AV installs, or just cleaning up cords around the house. Functionality: Top-notch. The hook-and-loop material is aggressive enough to hold firmly, but not so sticky that it clings to everything else in your tool bag. They wrap cleanly, stay put, and release easily when you need to re-route cables. They’re reliable enough for professional jobs and flexible enough for home use. Storage Capacity: Each strap holds more than you’d expect — I rarely need to link two together. They handle thick cable bundles or power cords just fine on their own. And when I do need more length, it’s easy to join a second strap for a larger wrap. The two-color mix (black and gray) is great for keeping different cable types separated — for instance, network vs. power. The thin profile also helps keep bundles neat and professional-looking. These have earned me plenty of compliments from higher-ups for clean cable runs and well-organized setups. Once you switch to these, you’ll never want to deal with cutting zip ties again.

VELCRO Ties Are the Standard to Rely On
Size: 150Pk - 8" x 1/2", Style: Cord Wrap Cable Ties, Color: Black and Gray
I am a big fan of VELCRO brand products because of their quality and utility. I have used their rolls of Velcro hook and loop tape as well as their little patches, and I became a brand loyalist. Yes, there are many other manufacturers, but these are certainly as good as it gets. This product is your very basic, very thin, and very copious supply (for my neighbors in Rio Linda - that means plenty of them). You get two big spools of these little eight (8) inch ties that are adhesive throughout their length - that means you can tie the smallest cables to anything almost up to their full length. If you need a longer wrap - use more than one and just extend the length by piggy backing them. The real advantage of this bulk package is that you are not tempted to save some for later - you have enough to use as many as you like and can happily go tie crazy on all your cords! It's VELCRO party time. We live in an electronic age, and I have a lot of more pricey hook-and-loop specialty ties, and I try to keep a few back as spares. Forget that - with these little ties, I can actually use them and do what I need to get those tangled cords in shape. O.K. maybe I am a geek, but I cook my chicken - dead already, and I believe in independent segregated wiring and not tripping over things or spending time untangling messes when I need to move gear. These big rolls will make your life easier - I use them to attach notes to little jars or vials - to tie two gloves together when I am not wearing them - and other uses even cutting them into smaller pieces. That's one of the advantages of these bulk spools - lots of supply. Yes, the individual ties are dinky thin little things, but they hold very well (why you buy genuine VELCRO) and you don't feel stupid using them up on anything you feel like. They are expendable, and that adds to their ultimate utility. Darned useful product. Buy it - use it; enjoy.
