Grow dwarf French Lavender from seed. It's now really easy and cost effective to grow your own exotic French Lavender from seed. What's even better is 'Bandera' is compact, staying at just 20-30cm tall, so would look attractive in terracotta pots on the patio, or as a low hedge. The fragrance is spicy and a little bit addictive! Height and Spread: 20cm (10").

After this return to the recommended germination temperature. If germination does not occur in 6-10 weeks return to the fridge for a further 3-6 weeks. Examine regularly whilst in the fridge and remove immediately the seeds show signs of germinating.
