A Rogue White

Lavender is a tricksy little thing. Ive known this since I studied at tafe over 10 years ago, but I have a bad habit of forgetting that not everyone knows this. Lavender is available in 3 different colours. Everyone knows about the purple, as this is the most common colour, however you can also find it in shades of mauve and white. The one in this picture self seeded in one of the parks that had been left to grow. If you are ever trying to propogate lavender, it is possible to do so by softwood cuttings. I have had very little success with this and find it easier to hunt around where a large bush is growing and you will usually find seedlings popping up their little heads this time of year.
