| Lavendula angustifolia- these plants are hardy to zone 5, which is what our growing zone here in mid-Michigan is. Most angustifolias average about 22-24" in mature size, and are slower growing than the lavandins. These also bloom earlier in the season (May/June) and some varieties will rebloom in the fall. In planning, allow about 24 inches of spacing between plants. PLANTS ARE SOLD OUT FOR 2009 - but I will leave the plant descriptions up for reference. ANGUSTIFOLIAS: Croxton's Wild (20-24") Light blue but as it flowers, it is a virtual kaleidescope of colors - white, pink, lavender and purple all on one plant - that makes it one of the prettiest landscape lavenders. Croxton's Wild was a 1994 introduction from seed collected in the wild by Pauline Croxton. Out of stock. Jean Davis (18") Tight growth habit; makes good edging. Pink flowers. Also known as Pink, Rosea and Loddon pink. Out of stock. Folgate (18-24") This is hands-down the hardiest lavender that I have worked with in the 11 years I've been growing lavender in mid-Michigan. It has a wonderfully compact shrub growth with narrow gray-green leaves. A bright blue color introduced into Britain prior to 1933. A very fragrant lavender that is also a great culinary lavender. Wonderful for dried bundles. Out of stock. Mailette (18-24") Great for fresh or dried bouquets. Very fragrant. Some use as essential oil. Flowers are a violet/blue/purple, good flowering ratio to length of stem. Nice for dried bundles. Out of stock. Melissa (20-24") A beautiful white flowering lavender that is very fragrant and also a good culinary lavender. Blooms early and sometimes reblooms. Also very hardy. Lovely as dried bundles.

| Lavendula x intermedia (Lavandins) Lavandins grow faster and larger than the angustifolias - averaging 36" across with longer flower stems and more flower buds per stem than angustifolias. They tend to bloom in late June/July and sometimes into August, depending on the season. In planning your garden, allow about 36 inches of spacing between plants. LAVANDINS: Edelweiss (24-30") Also sold as Cathy Blanc, Caty Blanc, White Grosso. Growth habit is much like Grosso. Dense, gray-green foliage with white flowers. When planted in mass the white flowers are outstanding. A much cleaner, brighter white than Lavandula Alba and a neater, more compact plant. Beautiful as dried bundles. Out of stock. Grosso(20-24") Compact plant, tight silvery foliage. Produces long stems of fat, dark violet flower spikes. Very popular plant for both oil production and dried flowers. Very popular plant for the home garden and the commercial lavender grower. Wonderful in sachets as well. Out of stock. Provence (24-36") Strong grower, long stems of fragrant, mauve flowers.
