A Lavender Farm

Today I went to a lavender farm in Vancouver Washington. 
Although I don't believe this plant above is a lavender it was among
hundreds of other flowers.. The whole place run by a woman named Mary was so picturesque, bumble bees and hummingbirds throughout.  

Two Nubian goats, 20 beautiful hens and metal art (Jerry, take note) throughout the garden . And besides that, Mary makes all her own lavender products which she sells inside an adorable quaint white-washed building. I could be happy sleeping in there. !!
 In summer her sunflowers reach for the sky. 
I snapped some photos so here they are.. I could have spent hours there.. She was very knowledgeable and fun to talk to. 
I just wonder if she realizes she has the pot of gold at the end of the rainbow. 
What a lovely day.    
     

A flower that looks like a Christmas decoration !
