What do you use it for Kat and how do you prepare it ?

I use it as lavender (dried bouquets), but mostly as infusion for tea. It is a very good tea when somebody has pneumonia or angina. So winter tea, I would say.

Several places: Exodus 12:22, Leviticus 14:4, Numbers 19:18, 1 Kings 4:33, Psalms 51:7, Hebrews 9:19

No, you just need to go to the herbal garden :-)

Herbal garden? In New York City? Maybe one of those roof top gardens.

There is myth all around the world, that everything is in New York, lol. I am sure, there are herbal gardens there, as well.

I'm sure you're right. There must be many.
