Description
There's nothing quite like the intoxicating fragrance of a large planting of Hidcote, one of the most popular lavender varieties for more than 50 years. The scent of its violet-blue flower spikes permeates the air during the warm-weather months. When dried, the racemes are widely used in potpourris and arrangements. With its lovely blooms and compact mounds of silver-green foliage, this lavender is ideal for sunny borders. Butterf lies and beneficial pollinators cannot resist its perfume, but deer tend to pass it by. Easy to grow and, once established, virtually maintenance free. A winner of the RHS Award of Garden Merit.Lavandula angustifolia
