I love it b/c it looks so real -- it's natural and understated, unlike some faux flowers that are over-the-top in terms of garish color or petals/leaves that are obviously fake.  This looks just like a young plant that you'd find in a nursery.  The pot is pretty sweet too -- the faux aging is nicely done.  I've grown lavender for years, but sometimes you need a rest from all the gardening.  The "dirt" looks like the real thing, uneven, w bits of twigs sticking up slightly.  Also, arrived well-packed in perfect condition.
