Grosso Lavender (Lavandula x intermedia 'Grosso') is strongly fragrant (and is arguably THE most fragrant variety). It features hundreds of large, dark purple fragrant flowers on long, showy spikes.

That beautiful dark color and outstanding fragrance holds fast, even when the spikes are dried. If you craft with Lavender, you need to include this variety in your Herb Garden.

With a mounded, tidy form and very attractive foliage, Grosso puts on a magnificent display even when out of bloom. In the warmest climates, the silvery-green foliage remains evergreen for year-round interest.

Grosso is a natural hybrid between cold-hardy English Lavender angustilfolia and the ruggedly durable latifolia varieties that are seen in the Provencal landscape. Just give it well-drained soil and plenty of sunlight.

Once it is established in your landscape, it can produce hundreds of large purple flower spikes that grow 6 inches long. This beautiful plant, nicknamed "Fat Lavender" makes an incredible display from mid to late summer.

The calyxes cling tightly to the flowering stems when dried, making Grosso an excellent choice as an everlasting dried flower. Create pretty, highly scented soaps, distill into essential oil, dry for wands or sachets and include in potpourri.

The flower display starts in midsummer and continues through fall. Rabbits and deer tend to leave them alone. But you'll watch in wonder at how much butterflies and honeybees appreciate the nectar.

You'll never grow tired of this special plant. Let it delight you for years with rich scent and a lovely, bushy form. Order your Grosso Lavender today!

How to Use Grosso Lavender in the Landscape

This is a classic addition to the edge of sunny borders or along the length of gravel walkways. It will be a noteworthy "Thriller" in large outdoor containers on your patio, deck or balcony.

Try a low hedge around your Victory Garden. You'll elevate the look of your vegetable patch, and entice beneficial pollinators to boost your production in "Second Season" plantings.

Create a solid hedge by planting 18 inches apart on center, measuring from the center of one to the center of the next. Mulch between the plants with wood chips, or use landscape gravel.

If you have the space, create a wonderful mass planting by adding additional rows staggered off-center from each other. You'll cover the ground and create quite a legacy. Just ensure that your plants have good drainage in wintertime.

Will you be harvesting the flowers regularly in a home business? Create long, orderly rows like the professionals do. Expand the distance between rows to 42 inches apart for easy access.

Harvest your Grosso for culinary purposes, as well. Add to honey or vinegar to flavor sugary sweets or savory meats. Infuse water for a refreshing drink on a hot summer day.

Savor the fragrance by placing these special plants in high-traffic areas. Delight your guests with Grosso Lavender lining your front walkway. Add a single specimen by your back door.

#ProPlantTips for Care

This easy-care plant actually does best in poor soil with sharp drainage. No need to amend or improve the fertility of your soil.

Do not fertilize Grosso, either. Over-rich soil will cause the plant to be less fragrant. All Grosso Lavender plants really need is full sun and good air circulation.

Pay careful attention to watering only during the first year as it gets established in your landscape. After the first season, it will be tolerant of drought.

"Mound up" if your soil retains water in wintertime or if you live in humid climates. Add additional soil in a heap 12 inches tall and plant in that mound. Add an attractive landscape border to create a raised bed.

Prune to shape in early spring. You can periodically rejuvenate your plant by clipping a few of the oldest, woodiest stems back to the base. You'll soon see new growth emerge from the base.

Don't miss these beloved plants. These are in demand and are at a high-risk of sellout. Place your order for Grosso Lavender today!

The amount of detail in this book is so interesting and the specifics of so much theoretical ideas revolving around true ideas makes it so fun to read. The writer does a great job and describing every situation enough where you get the point but not too much to try to bore you . The book is very easy to follow, keeps you on your toes, was pretty funny to me, and truthfully just a great book for anyone!

Read it in 2 days
Format: Paperback
This is science based science fiction. How refreshing to read science without turning the story into horror. Without a plethora of characters, it is easy to remember who is who. The story moves along well enough that I wanted to keep going. It us a p age turner in many respects. All this said, there were too many crises suddenly resolved like some Star Trek episode from 1966. It reached the point where I said to myself, "OK, this doesn't matter. Move along, nothing to see here." There was good humor, some surprising twists, and enough involvement with characters that I didn't want to put it down. As science fiction goes, it was good like pulp stories go. It wasn't like Ursula LeGuin or Robert Heinlein but I would probably pick up the next book he writes.

A book worth rereading
Format: Hardcover
This was a book club pick. Honestly, I wouldn't have chosen to read this myself, but I'm glad that I did. I would have missed out on an incredible story. I've been reading a lot of thriller and fantasy books lately, that I forgot how much I enjoy sci-fi. This brought it back for me. There's a lot of science-heavy discussions in the book and I loved it! When I got to a subject or term I didn't know, I would go online and learn more about it. I feel that Grace is a dork like me because he wouldn't curse. He had little anecdotes he uses in place of swearing. Something I definitely do myself! A lot of the book is the MMC talking to himself. Surprisingly, it worked. There's so much humor that it kept the story going. There was not a lull. Usually I dislike info-dumping as an introduction to get all the background story told, but I didn't mind it at all. Maybe I'm being biased because I love science talk. **SPOILERS AHEAD** What makes the whole plot engaging is the fact that the plot doesn't seem too fantastical. It's something that could happen. There's a lot of ethics and morals involved in determining what should be done. I would hate to be in a position where I have to chose what's best for everyone. That's why Stratt is a necessary character. I hated some of her decisions and how she operated, but you need someone who's focused on the general welfare of humanity. I would be too focused on myself, my family, etc. As much as it hurts to admit, I'm selfish (and a coward) like Grace. I wouldn't want to die. But was it right for Stratt to force him on the mission? This could also be taken religiously. If God has a plan and things happen for a reason, is it our right to deter what's going to happen? God wiped out the world many times because of humanity's sins, what if this was God's doing? So many questions and debates on right vs wrong, ethics vs morals, and religion vs humanity made for a incredible book club discussion. I love how this book ended. I wish I could continue reading about Rocky and Grace's adventures, it's that fascinating. However, I think Grace staying on Erid was the best outcome. If the roles were reversed, I don't think Rocky would have the same welcome. I feel that those in charge would have dissected and kept Rocky hostage, all in the name of science. Just as the Astrophage were first introduced, the first things the scientists did was poke and probe. Essentially torturing the Astrophage to see what makes them tick. I think Rocky would have the same fate. Oh, and my favorite part is the relationship between Rocky and Grace. I cried so many times when I was reading. Scared that something bad was going to happen to either of them. Especially in the scene where Rocky busted out of his tunnel to save Grace. I got upset and told the book that 'if Rocky dies, I swear, this is the worst book ever!' And the scene where Rocky learns about radiation poisoning. How he slowly becomes aware of what happened to his crew, his friends. I was a mess. This book is definitely one that I could go back and reread. I did watch the movie afterwards. There's a lot of differences to adapt the story to screen, but it was okay. They got the humor down pat, but I didn't get the direness of the whole situation nor the special bond that both MCs had.

Excellent story
Format: Kindle
This book is worth your time. It is a great introduction to a variety of scientific disciplines without insulting the reader. It also respects and understands humanity, engineering, history and political science. Then it lays that foundation to tell the story of a unique friendship of two beings with mutual goals who have to communicate and problem solve together. Along the way, you can really contrast how Grace and Rocky do it, vice the Hail Mary team did it.

A Brilliant, Emotional, and Unforgettable Sci-Fi Adventure
Format: Paperback
Project Hail Mary by Andy Weir is one of those rare novels that delivers everything you could want from science fiction: gripping suspense, fascinating science, humor, heart, and a genuinely moving story about survival and friendship. The novel follows Ryland Grace, a middle school science teacher who wakes up alone on a spacecraft with no memory of who he is or why he’s there. As his memories slowly return, the stakes become clear: humanity is facing extinction, and he may be the only person who can stop it. The mystery unfolds at a perfect pace, blending high tension with moments of discovery that keep you turning the pages. What makes this book stand out is how seamlessly it combines hard science with accessibility. Like the author’s earlier work, the scientific details feel authentic and well researched, but they never overwhelm the story. Instead, the problem-solving becomes the engine of the plot. Each obstacle feels real, and the solutions are both clever and satisfying. The biggest surprise—and the emotional core of the novel—is the relationship that develops during the mission. Without giving anything away, it adds warmth, humor, and depth that elevate the story far beyond a typical survival thriller. By the end, the novel becomes less about science and more about courage, trust, and the willingness to sacrifice for others. The pacing is excellent throughout, with a balance of suspense, humor, and heartfelt moments. If there’s a small drawback, it’s that some plot developments feel a bit convenient. But the strong characters and emotional payoff more than make up for it. Overall, this is a must-read for fans of science fiction, space exploration, and anyone who enjoys smart, character-driven storytelling. It’s thrilling, funny, deeply human, and surprisingly emotional. I finished it feeling both entertained and uplifted. Highly recommended.
