Lavandula Angustifolia 'Elizabeth' (Lavender)

Garden Centre > Plants > Shrubs > L

Position: full sun
Soil: fertile, well-drained soil
Rate of growth: average
Flowering period: July to September
Hardiness: fully hardy
A new variety, with dense spikes of shocking violet flowers in late summer that shine out among aromatic, silvery-grey leaves. It's fairly compact, so makes a gorgeous, informal flowering hedge, especially for edging a path and border, and brushing against it releases its heady fragrance. The flower-spikes are highly attractive to bees and other beneficial insects. Garden care: Cut back the stalks after the flowers have faded to retain a compact shape. Carefully trim back in April, taking care not to cut into old wood.
