I stopped at a small farm stand where they were selling herbs and the 2
lavendars that he had were "lady lavendar" and "english lavendar". I don't
see them on your list. Are they just there with another name? I have the
english lavendar and I had a very hard time getting them started. I put in
about 7-8 pieces and only 2 of them survived. They both are doing ok now.
