Olivier -
This lavender was introduced by a nursery of the same name in Southern
Oregon and is very popular in California. I checked their web site
regarding this cultivar and they do not list the parentage (I think it
appeared as a chance seedling):

You might contact Jim & Dotti Becker at Goodwin Creek Gardens to see if
they know more (info@goodwincreekgardens.com).
I think I would agree with you on the parentage - its appearance would
suggest that to me also.
BTW - Your Medit-Plants messages usually seem to come as an HTML

am not sure everyone can view your e-mails.
