When to admire the flowering of lavender in Provence ?
It starts in mid-June in the lowest altitude areas (Rhône Valley, Luberon), Valensole) and continues until the end of July in the highest altitude areas (Plateau de Sault, Montagne de Lure, Baronnies, Diois)
It varies according to lavender and lavandin varieties, climate, altitude and latitude. Local weather is also a determining factor.
