Hi, I was always interested in lavender. Its scent reminds me of smells from childhood. I live in CT now and had been told that lavender does not grow around here because it is a tender perennial and our temps fall below 0F quite often during the winter. Does anyone know, if that is true and would it help situation if I grow it in huge pots that I can roll into the garage for the winter. The temps will still hit freezing point in the garage, but probably will not fall lower then freezing. Can you recommend any varieties that would be good for such growing? I also have grow lamps that I can use to start the seeds now, in order to promote blooming the first year.

Thank you.
Maya.
