I just potted these cuttings up out of plug trays into 4" pots yesterday afternoon. There are 244 in all. We will allow them to establish their roots in the pots before planting them out later this fall. 'Provence' is a French hybrid lavender, or Lavindin. According to Ritcher's Herbs, where we bought our plugs, it is a: Vigorous, long-stemmed variety in cultivation since the 1950s and still widely grown for fresh bouquets, lavender wands, and potpourri. Very fragrant, with a sweet floral scent. Ht. 1m/3ft. This is how it is grown in France.
