点评:I rang Lavender fields to enquire about their lavender plant stock before visiting, was planning a lavender hedge of mixed plants. Was informed by them that they had the varieties i wanted in various size pots, up to and including 3 litres. On arrival and after an hour’s drive their stock appeared as a poor selection of very, very small plants in different sized pots. When this was pointed out to the staff the reply was ‘that was how they were delivered to us and that they will grow’. This is understood but was expecting the plants size to be relevant to pot size as is the case at any other horticultural sales. Was wrongly under the impression that they may have been grown there. Wasted journey and time, straight back in the car and off to my local garden centre. Would strongly avoid if visiting to buy plants.
