The message
from Janet Tweedy contains these words:

Norfolk lavender have stopped mail order for the summer but I'd like to
buy several varieties of angustifolia for my new pergola.

I don't trust ordinary garden centres as many have used seed to
propagate their varieties as opposed to cuttings from named plants,
which means you may not get the true named lavender.

Apart from Norfolk lavender does anyone have experience of reliable
(i.e. plants labelled correctly) lavender growers by mail order.

Yebbut..do *any* mailorder nurseries send out plants in full growth
in high summer?

Norfolk Lavender do quite a number of the plant and flower shows
afaik, you could ask them for dates and venues nearest to Bucks and buy
from the stand.

, some do and in the case of lavenders you could try
