These are my second attempt at growing lavender from seeds. I sprayed my first attempt with BT in an attempt to avoid fungus gnats. That killed the tiny seedlings.
This is how the new seedlings look at about four weeks after sowing. These are sowed on top of moist seedling mix, room temperature, under plant lights, no stratification. Two cells weren't planted.
Those are starting to grow their first real leaves. Pretty nice.
These are two or three weeks after sowing. Same treatment. I ordered a couple of additional varieties to try.
They are growing just as well, just a little behind because I sowed them later.
This will give me a variety of colors of blooms and plant type, for the xeric border and containers. These varieties are described as very compact growing, and blooming the first year if conditions are right.
