      Hi John,

      they are related species but not the same. One is Lavandula latifolia (spike lavender) and the other Lavandula angustifolia (lavender). Spike lavender contains higher amounts of a few compounds that make it a better choice for clearing congestion and improving breathing.

    Hi. Can I make this blend and keep it handy in a glass bottle – for my husband?? ( for hives and urticaria ). Instead of making it each time he needs it. He has chronic urticaria and keeps needing it. Thanks for your advice.

      Hi Aparna,

      you can absolutely make this blend ahead of time and keep it on hand. I’d recommend putting it in the fridge when you’re not using it to extend the shelf life.
