Last year I planted several lavender plants, including three of the new variety, ‘Phenomenal.’ As I was cleaning in the fragrance garden last weekend I noticed the profound difference between the ‘Phenomenal’ plants and the others. See for yourself in this photo I shot this morning, a comparison that is typical of all the ‘Phenomenal’ and all of the ‘Hidcote’ plants in my garden.

After our cold Zone 6 winter, where for the first eight weeks there was no snow cover and then for the next eight weeks there was deep snow cover, this is how my lavenders look.

Guess which variety I’ll be buying more of this year?
