Beautiful and heavenly scented — lavender certainly has a way of brightening up a space. For me, lavender brings a sense of calm, and aside from its addicting aroma, it will fill your garden with color, too. But remember, knowing the basics of lavender plant care is essential if you want to grow these hardy buds in your backyard and give them a happy and healthy life.
Native to the Mediterranean with over 45 different types of lavender species and over 450 varieties, this plant has become a popular pick for many gardeners. From the English lavender (Lavandula angustifolia) to the French Hybrid lavender (Lavandula x intermedia) — there is a range to choose from to all a touch of elegance and a European inspired summer to your home.
