With its compact shape and dark purple flowers, Lavandula angustifolia is one of the best known lavender varieties. Lavender is a wonderfully fragrant, perennial plant from the Mediterranean region. As early as the 17th century, the French cultivated lavender for the perfume industry. Today, lavender not only brightens up the garden, but is also a great asset in the home and in the kitchen. In the kitchen, young leaves can be used in the preparation of lamb or mutton, in fish dishes and stews. Lavender's fragrant stems are ideal for cutting or drying, and its nectar-rich flowers are especially attractive to bees, but also to humans. Lavender is ideal for borders, low hedges and pots.
Care When properly cared for, lavender plants can bloom profusely. Prune the plants twice a year, in April and in October. If you prune in October, do so to 10 to 15cm above the ground, but be sure to leave a patch of greenery. The second pruning of lavender takes place after flowering, between August and October. The spent flowers should be removed by cutting them off. Any protruding twigs can also be removed. Water the lavender plants regularly and make sure they get enough light.
Size The plants have a height of 10-15cm upon delivery, measured including the nursery pot. The plants are supplied in a nursery pot with a diameter of 10.5 cm.
