Features

This hybrid cross between Lavandula angustifolia and latifolia results in dense, shrubby plants with highly aromatic foliage and flowers. Plants are prized for their intense fragrance and are grown commercially for use in potpourris and perfume. A great way to bring fragrance to the garden all season long.

Uses

Outstanding for planting near walkways, decks and patios where scent can be enjoyed. Excellent cut flowers for fresh or dried arrangements. Popular for sachets and potpourri.
