Perennial in USDA zones 5 - 9. Blooms from late spring to summer.
Height: 2' - 3' tall.
Spread: 3' wide.
Full sun.
Small 1/4" - 1/2" purple flowers clustered on spikes. This is the really tall, old-fashioned, fragrant lavender! The intoxicating fragrance of lavender has been used for centuries to lift spirits and provide a fresh scent for the house. Valuable as an ornamental flower and as an herb, it is useful in the kitchen, for crafts, potpourris, and as a moth repellent. Lavender syrup recipe inside packet.
Drought tolerant. Prefers well-drained soil. Do not fertilize. Excellent in rock gardens, used as a short hedge, or in large pots.
Seeds take a long time to germinate, as long as 50 - 60 days. Also requires a chilling period before sowing. Let nature do the work for you, by sowing in the fall and letting winter weather do the rest!
OUTDOORS: Prechill for 4 - 6 weeks (instructions inside packet) and sow in early spring as soon as the soil can be worked. Recommended to sow outdoors in late fall, so seeds may benefit from cold treatment period that occurs from winter weather.
