This cold weather is creating problems. The greenhouse temperatures have fallen to three degrees some nights so I don’t want to plant out the tomatoes and cucumbers yet. This means that the Vitopod heated propagators are overcrowded in the potting shed as are the greenhouse benches.

Sown mine a couple of weeks ago, only the radish that I sowed at the same time to mark the rows are up

My lavenders look a bit like that, because I haven't pruned them as well as I could (I didn't prune them at all some years  )

You've got a lot of old wood in the middle, as others have said. That is perfectly usual behaviour if the pruning hasn't been quite right. There's no point in pruning back now into the bare old wood, as the plant won't regrow from that old wood.

The others' suggestions are worth a try 

Today wasn't as warm and sunny as yesterday, but dry until just now. A sudden shower made a rainbow over the back hedge
