本文发表在 rolia.net 枫下论坛由于想在后院种植一些薰衣草，就在网上查了一些种植薰衣草信息分享给大家，我没有种植经验，还希望有经验的网友补充和指正。
在多伦多这样的寒冷城市，室外只能种Munstead Lavender 和 Hidcote lavender 两种英国的薰衣草，第一种香味最好，第二种花的颜色是深紫色，好看些。它们的区别如下：
They are both excellent cultivars.
Munstead is quite compact, extremely fragrant with rosy purple flowers and remains attractive throughout the year. This dwarf lavender grows well in containers and is perfect for edging, hedges or knot gardens. Excellent for potpourris or as dried flowers as it retains its color.
Hardiness: 5 - 9
​Bloom: Late spring - Late summer
Height: 12-18” (30-45 cm)

Hidcote is a free flowering variety prized for its long lasting and delightful scent as well as the fashion in which its dark purple flowers contrast with its blue-green evergreen foliage. Perfect choice for low hedges, for edging or for creating borders. Excellent for crafts and dried flowers as it retains its color. One of the strongest-scented varieties.
Hardiness: 5 - 9
​Bloom: Late spring - Mid summer
Height: 18-20” (45-50 cm)更多精彩文章及讨论，请光临枫下论坛 rolia.net
