I’m sure some of you remember the never ending story of the
‘lavender round the washing line’.
The lavender that grew so much it outgrew itself and was given the chop
(new readers might like to use the search box at the side
– just put in ‘lavender round the washing line” and the whole story will emerge)
Well after removing the old plants last June I transplanted some of them to another part of the garden wondering if they’d take.
Nothing ventured nothing gained eh??
Fast forward a few months
a few months filled with lots of rain and then some sunny weather
and now look at what I have!
A small Lavender hedge 🙂
which will be at the back of a part of the garden I’m adding to by dividing and transplanting the smaller plants from elsewhere
Never say die indeed 🙂 🙂
Looking good on the cheap lol
Or at least it will when its finished lol
We are just starting winter here. Love those plants and seeing something growing.

That’s beautiful! I tried to grow lavender a few years ago but it didn’t take. I may try again. There is a lavender farm in my province so I know it’s possible!

Look what you did! You saved the lavender. It reminds me of the saying “Bloom where you are planted.” Good lesson for us all. Peace!

The garden is looking well. We are well into die-back season here.

Love it. Years back I stayed in a B & B which dried its linen on lavender bushes in the sun. An absolutely blissful experience which lingers in my memory.

It has done so well. Lavender brings bees to the garden, which is good, but not so good at the clothes line where you stand to hang out washing.
