France’s lavender field bloom breakdown by month

Similar to the cherry blossoms in Washington D.C., viewing France’s lavender fields in peak bloom requires a little flexibility in your planning. The spring climate has a domino effect on the blossoming: it might cause an early or late bloom which then impacts when they’re harvested.

June: Mid-month is typically when the bloom begins, with most fields showcasing delicate purple flowers by the end of the month.
July: As the first weeks of July roll by, the lavender fields reach their peak. Lower altitude areas will peak sooner than higher altitude areas in the region. The later half of the month sees the harvest season begin.
August: Viewing lavender fields in all of their glory may be hit or miss in August, as many growers have already begun their harvest. By mid-month, the purple hue is all but removed as the lavender flowers are fully harvested for oil production.
