Because what you need is somewhere to begin.
Sarah Bader's guide to a hundred lavenders and how to grow them. Colour, fragrance, size and foliage for each one, with what it asks of you in pruning, spacing and planting.
We keep it on the shelf because people ask us the same question every summer, which lavender should I plant, and the honest answer is that it depends on where you stand and what you want from it. This book is the long version of that answer.
The later chapters turn to harvest, to cooking, and to what to make once the rows are yours.

Which lavender should I plant?
It depends on where you stand and what you want from it. This book is the long version of that answer, which is why we are asked the same question every summer.
Is it for beginners or experienced growers?
Both. It begins with choosing and planting, and moves on to harvest and what to make once the rows are yours.
