About Lavender

A highly aromatic herb famous for its soothing fragrance. True English Lavender absolutely melts in the humid, extreme heat of North Indian plains. Terrace gardeners must choose French/Fringed Lavender, which is far more heat and humidity tolerant and thrives in well-draining grow bags.
