- Go bigger on lavender flowers, with notably larger blooms than many other varieties held upright on strong stems for a fuller, more impressive summer display
- Fill sunny spots with that unmistakable sweet lavender fragrance, while bees, butterflies and other pollinators make the most of the nectar-rich flowers
- Keep the show going, flowering throughout summer and potentially producing a second flush into autumn when the first faded blooms are cut back

- Use it almost anywhere, from patio pots and herb gardens to pathway edging, low hedging and cut-flower displays, with evergreen foliage adding year-round structure

Top Tips

Care Information
An easy to grow, evergreen shrub that produces masses of beautifully scented flowers above silvery-grey foliage. Drought-tolerant, lavender thrives in a sunny border, container, herb or gravel gardens.
Best planted between April and when the soil is warming up, ensure that the plants gets really good drainage and there's no need to improve the soil as lavender thrives in any poor or moderately fertile conditions.
Lavenders should be pruned every year to keep them compact. On established plants use secateurs to remove flower stalks and about 2.5cm (1in) of the current year’s growth - usually in late summer, after flowering - making sure that some green growth remains. You can prune lighty in April if required.
