The Parsley Patch

The variety of lavender we grow is Lavandin Lavandula x intermedia ‘Grosso,’ a French cultivar that has proven for us to be hardier than the more common English varieties. All English varieties such as ‘Munstead’ and ‘Hidecot’ have failed. ‘Grosso’ is larger and considerably more fragrant and is the primary type used for commercial lavender production.
