Lavender is a special shrub in the Moosey garden - I have many different types, and one or more seem to be in flower all year round.

Lavender - the Grower's Guide

The author of this book grows her lavender in the south island of New Zealand. It's not just a book for New Zealanders, though - she details over 200 lavender species and cultivars from countries around the world.

The photographs are very botanical as well as showing lavenders growing in the garden. I promise that I'm going to re-read this book very soon - it's inspiring.
