LAVENDER

Lavender, is one of my favorite herbs. I love the scent and the color, but it has been a challenge to grow in Indiana.
We have harsh winters and heavy spring rains, making it difficult to grow and maintain healthy lavender.
Pictured is Lady Lavender it has proven to be the most generous of our lavender plants. We will have three cuttings per season, and the plants winter over very well. The spring rains are not an issue because we have added a lot of sand to the soil for drainage.
