Yummy Lavender Fruit Salad

Submitted by browneyes315

"Yummy fresh fruit, warm lavender flavors and sweet agave nectar sauce with crisp mint leaves to put that edge on the whole salad really come together to make a really wonderful salad! And although I made the salad with agave necter, you can actually use honey if you would like and if you can not find lavender - no worries! Just substitute 1/4 cup coarsley shopped fresh mint."
