  • Type of products available: 0/1/0A7, 0/1/1P9

Main asset

Compact habit, aromatic gray-green foliage, abundant blooming melliferous, perfumed, of very dark color.

Remarks

Prune very shortly end of August-beginning of September, above the 3-4 lowest green shoots on the branches but never back to the old wood, to keep a harmonious shape. With this pruning once a year, Lavenders can live 10-12 years.

Compact variety of true Lavender of dark blue violet flowering, the most used in northern climates due to its very good hardiness, better than hybrid Lavandulas (L. x intermedia).
