Just moved here from California. Wondering what is best lavender to grow here? Had good luck with English lavender in hot/dry central California and wondered what would do well here with the added humidity? Any help would be appreciated!

Lavender flowers can be harvested and dried for continuing pleasure throughout the year. On a dry day, cut the stems just above the leaves. To ensure optimal color and scent, choose spikes on which only the lower flowers have opened. Tie the lavender stems in bunches with a rubber band, and hang upside down in a dark place with good ventilation.
