I’ve consulted with the experts, and it seems that this deep blue strain of angustifolia is rumored to have grown wild in the mountains of France . French Fields makes for a wonderful fresh cut flower.

Lavendula X. Intermedias
|
|
Edelweiss
A softer, whiter version of Alba, this white lavender variety also dries nicely for crafts. It has a longer flower head with small, striated purple tinges through the base of the flower head. A member of the Dutch group.

Fat Spike Grosso
We call this the “work horse” of lavender varieties. The bush has a low, compact habit with very long, extremely fragrant flower heads. Used for oil production in France . This is the preferred lavender for lavender wands and for buds. A lighter purplish grey bud, this cultivar is not recommended for cooking as it contains camphor, a somewhat bitter flavor.

True Grosso
Until a few years ago, we were not aware of a difference between ‘Fat Spike’ and Grosso. The growth habit of this hardy plant has a “hedgehog-like appearance to 180 degrees. It has darker blooms than ‘Fat Spike’ and dries better for crafts. |

|
|
Impress Purple
A member of the Grosso group. The aroma of this variety is sweet and mild We are particularly impressed with how this x. intermedia dries for floral bouquets. It has an upright, deep purple flower head. |

Gros Blu
The long, deep blue spikes of this lavandin are breathtaking. Highly recommended for a stunning addition to any herb garden. The stems do not stay erect for fresh cut; however the flowers are much used for dried bouquets.

Fred Boutin
If you prefer large lavender, this is the variety for you. With silver-grey foliage it makes a great hedging plant and attractive winter foliage. A lighter flowering variety and the last to bloom in the season.
|

Provence
A seemingly well-known variety, Provence has been used frequently in California for fresh-cut, wands and potpourri. Though it is a hearty producer, the stalks do not dry as well in Oregon.

Hidcote Giant
A vigorous, upright producer with very long stems and large, compact flower heads. A distinctive variety in it’s unusually shaped blunt, fat flowers. Breathtaking lavandin. |
