We work directly with several family owned farms. Please note that availability of this product will vary during the year which is tied to the harvest season.
Our stems are more than a pretty flower! In any room they will help to freshen the air. When buds fall off the stems, crush them to help in scenting the room. Choose from a range of lavenders:
The ROYAL VELVET variety is a compact bunch with deep purple buds and is from our English lavender family of lavenders. Available in a 100 gram or 50 gram bunch. The 50 gram bunch is Ontario Grown.
The IMPERIAL GEM variety is a shorter stem compact bunch with deep purple buds and is from our English lavender family of lavenders. Available in a 50 gram bunch. The 50 gram bunch is Ontario Grown.
The GROS BLEU Variety is is a slightly wilder type of dried lavender. Not all stems are straight. It is one of the deeper purples in the intermedia (French lavender) family. Available in a 100 gram bunch.
The GROSSO variety has a feathery look and is a lighter purple version of our French Lavender. Available in a 100 gram bunch.
The PHENOMENAL variety is is a slightly darker colour amongst the French lavender varieities. Not all stems are straight. It is one of the deeper purples in the intermedia family. Available in a 50 gram bunch (Ontario Grown)
Mix & Match. Can't decide on a single variety? Our mix & match provides you with 12 bunches of the English Royal Velvet and 12 bunchs of the French Gros Bleu.
Not all lavenders are the same -- consider colour and height and even scent when picking: Our English lavender are approximately 12 inches (30 cms) in height, noting the stem length for Imperial Gem is much shorter. Our French lavender (Grosso, Phenomenal, and Gros Bleu) are approximately 18 inches (40 cms) in height.
Please note we bunch out lavenders based on weight (80 grams for English lavender and 100 grams for French lavender and ~50 grams for the Ontario grown lavenders.) The number of stems ranges from 50 to 125 per bunch.
Dilly Dilly Essentials is a Canadian owned and operated business we have created as a result of running a lavender farm in Ontario. Our sister business, Weir's Lane Lavender & Apiary, has involved 10+ years developing products that use natural formulations, are produced in a controlled environment, and use the best pure essential oil. Whenever possible, we source as much of our ingredients and other products from Ontario and Canadian sources, but there are certain limits to what we can source. These limits are based on (a) availability and (b) obtaining ingredients that have been tested and verified.
To produce exceptional products that your customers will love, our focus has been on sourcing the highest quality tested pure essential oils from family farms and small businesses located around the world with whom we have established longstanding relationships. Pure essential oil is like a good wine; there can be a range of varieties and quality. Dilly Dilly Essentials is proud of the quality of the pure essential oils and other ingredients we use in our products.
English Lavender
Lavandula Angustifolia, also known as True Lavender or English Lavender, has a subtle and relatively sweet scent. This is the lavender that was developed for the English perfume industry. It is considered to have therapeutic properties that can calm and relieve burns, bug bites, and headaches.
French Lavender
Lavandula Intermedia, also known as French Lavender, has a slightly stronger, lemony scent. This is the lavender that was developed for the French perfume industry. It is a cross between English Lavender and a variety known as Spike/Spanish Lavender. It has a 'bigger' scent and is more economical when making a room spray or linen spray. It also is believed to be effective in repelling moths and mosquitoes.
Dried Lavender Buds (Florets)
We sell French Lavender buds for making crafts (sachets) and English Lavender buds as a spice for cooking. When cooking with lavender, it is good to remember that a little goes a long way. Use just enough and you'll get a hint of lavender taste in your food or drink recipes.
Dried Lavender Flowers (Stems)
We sell a variety of dried lavender stems that come straight from affiliated farms and are from the most recent harvest. These varieties will vary in terms of bud colour, stem length, and other characteristics.
Other Essential Oils
We select our sources for non-lavender pure essential oils carefully. While you can choose a different supplier, the suppliers we use provide us with certificates of analyses and other documentation that ensure we are working with only the highest quality ingredients.
Other Ingredients: Throughout the years we have experimented and tested many formulas, and you are receiving the benefits from this experimentation. Our focus has always been to manufacture top notch products with quality base ingredients with only natural formulations. Doing this has insured a reasonable shelf life for our products; something that is very important for your customers.
Dilly Dilly Essentials is about creating a line of products for your store that stand out and that your customers will love.
Why small batch?
Small batch means it's been freshly made (which extends your product shelf life) and you can purchase in relatively small quantities to meet your customer's demands. But small batch also means that we use a facility that has passed regulatory inspections; we store products in a clean space; we only use quality ingredients; and we make products with care in a clean and sterile environment. Our state of the art small batch facility does just that.
Why Dilly Dilly Essentials?
We work with you to create the best solution for your business. Dilly Dilly Essentials is the birth child of Weir's Lane Lavender & Apiary owners Kevin & Abigail and local Dundas business owner Michael Walker. We are known for our fair prices, ethical practices, and friendly atmosphere. We have 10+ years of experience making products using natural formulations and quality ingredients. Dilly Dilly Essentials's sister business started out by farming and distilling lavender so we know what is important in the growing, harvesting, and distilling of lavender and other pure essential oils. The sister business now focuses solely on manufacturing and selling products that customers love.
