Hi buddies!
I got a pack ok lavender seeds from a french(probably) company called "Tezier".. The packet says "Lavande Vraie" "Vivace".. Now i have no idea what that means or what variety of lavender is it.. Plz help with the translation and growing instructions too.. Howmuch time does it take to flower?

go to www.pioneerthinking.com/lavender.html.
I have been trying to grow lavender myself but they take a long time to germinate.I planted my seeds in February and still nothing.You may have better luck with it than me.By the way,vraie means "true'or "real',Vivace means "durable,long-lived"

Glad you got some help Yasmeen. I am just too busy at the moment to get on here much.
Mine selfseed and a plant big enough to sustain some flowers take about two years here. Might be a lot quicker for you as you do not get frost.

Good luck with your lavender seeds, looks like you got some English lavender. Lavenders may not like a humid climate, make sure to plant them somewhere well drained and not too moist.

Lavande vraie means true lavender, so I would assume it is Lavandula officinalis or species English lavender. Vivace means it is perennial. Sounds like just what you want.
