The 2023 lavender time of year has been rather assorted so far at Landgard in Germany . When look at the Landgard gross sales , the season was in particular slow and powerfully regulate by the weather . " Due to the cool and wet bounce , some lavender mass had timbre problems , and the outgrowth of the product was slow than usual . specially white-hot flowering lavender had high production losses . Overall , the quantities of finished products declined due to the atmospheric condition in March and April , " says Marius Huschka , Head of Sales for DIY store at Landgard Flowers & Plants .
From May onwards , the situation ameliorate , and sales agreement picked up powerfully . The ironical and ardent atmospheric condition at that meter was good for the product of the plants , and the delivery quantities were always above the previous class . The classical blue - flowered lavender angustifolia was particularly in demand . " At the moment , however , it is difficult to get handgrip of goods , as many agriculturalist have given up later planting in their production . The Mary Leontyne Price were higher than last year because there was a famine in the market . The increased yield cost could be passed on to the trade , " state Marius Huschka .
The dusty and stiff spring was also a challenge for the lilac-colored production of Van Adrichem Gartenbau GmbH in Walbeck . The company create different kind of lavender , dahlias , begonias , genus Dianthus , and some bloom potted perennials on 17,000 m2 of outdoor space and under 17,000 m2 of ice and foil greenhouses .

" requirement was broadly very high this year . This was also due to the fact that the quantities on the market were somewhat gloomy than last yr . In improver , the long dusty enchantment in spring also conduce to losses , " says glasshouse owner Mareike van Adrichem . In summation to the moth-eaten spring , the weather was also not ideal during the rest of the season . " The teemingness of rainfall from mid - July onwards has put a passel of stress on the root of the lavender plants , which is why we can not react to symptom of disease and can only control the wellness of the plants to a modified extent , as everything is lave out again directly away . warmth is also a emphasis broker for lavender . All in all , we have always been able-bodied to sell our lavender very well in recent years , " enunciate Mareike vanAdrichem .
