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").

Culinary note: Some parts of these flowers are edible. For more details about edible flowers click here.
