Hydrosol is the floral water created from making essential oil. This process is called, steam distillation. Steam heats and passes through the plant material and the result is floral water and essential oil. The essential oil gets extracted from the waters surface and the water left over is the infusion of the plant material. The floral water smells similar to the essential oil but much softer in fragrance and in addition has the water soluble constituents of the plant material which can give it a very slight greener note.

I mostly share with you lavender recipes, but today I wanted to share a tablescape for your Fall decor. You may have heard me say, "a cocktail is hardly a cocktail without a little bling" (garnishes). I feel table decor much the same, you need a little spirit of the season to set the mood or tone for the dinner you have created.  I am no means a florist, but the nice thing about lavender is it looks absolutely gorgeous stuffed into a vase, a jar or even a wood bowl or tray. So for you non florist bouquet people you can purchase some wheat, cat tails and green stemmed leaves like eucalyptus and your local grocery store. Paired together and placed into a hollowed out pumpkin sets a beautiful display for fall, halloween or Thanksgiving dinner.  No need to think to hard about it, the general rule is to have odd number of items is more pleasing to the eye. So if your adding eucalyptus just count and add an odd number of them. I don't know why that is, but see it for yourself.  Feel free to share our tablescape pictures and idea, but please make sure to tag us @norwoodlavenderfarm or give photo credit.
