Varieties of the Spanish Lavender – Lavandula Stoechas

Spanish lavender might be misinterpreted with the common English lavender. Well, this isn’t wrong as people might hardly remember the wide varieties of lavender. To put it simply, English lavender is the most common version and the most old-fashioned version of lavender you might ever see. Lavender will always be that purple flowers plant.

However, the one that differentiates between English lavender and also Spanish lavender (Lavandula Stoechas) is the tolerance of the hot climates possessed by the Spanish lavender. It can stand being in the hot climates rather than the freezing climates. There are still a lot that you need to know about this lavender. As a suggestion, you need to keep on reading to thank me later.
