saw lavender seeds in Tesco. It says plant from Feb to June, I think. Could I plant them inside now

I've never tried growing Lavender from seed, but it is usually propagated by taking a heeled semi hardwood cutting (about 5 to a 9cm pot), at this time of year. If you can find plants, you'd save a lot of money and hassle.

I have grown lavender from seed, but it's a slow process compared to getting trays of plants from a nursery. I only got a few plants as a result, but I don't have the greenest of fingers. You may do far better.
