Alamosa Flowers: San Luis Valley, Colorado


Flower Detail

Lavandula angustifolia 'Munstead'

I love lavender and it's hard to grow in Alamosa. We're mostly too cold. I have one plant that has persisted over the years in a warm spot of the garden. I've tried other species and specimens of munstead and have never had them come back.
