We currently have six varieties of English Lavender (Lavendula angustifolia) ready for harvest: 'True Hidcote', 'Melissa', 'Sachet', 'French Fields', 'Croxton's Wild' and 'Peter Pan'. English lavender has a sweet fragrance and these six varieties were planted especially for crafters. Each variety (cultivar) has a unique aroma and we invite you to come and walk the field and experience the different sweet fragrances for yourself. Note that these six varieties were planted in 2013, came through -32 degrees weather this last winter along with the 90 degree weather we're having now and they still have two more years of growth before being considered mature plants. Still Waters Lavender is located at 3990 NE 33rd Street; Redmond, Oregon 97756. We are open Wednesday-Saturday, 10a-6p. Price for one (1) bunch: U-pick is $5; I-pick is $8. (A bunch is considered 125 stems). Please bring your own cutting utensil.
