English Lavender (Lavandula angustifolia) is a popular and versatile perennial herb celebrated for its fragrant purple flowers, silvery-green foliage, and aromatic scent. Known for its beauty and low-maintenance care, it thrives in full sun and well-drained soil, making it ideal for both garden beds and containers. Blooming in late spring to early summer, English Lavender produces spikes of vibrant purple flowers that attract pollinators like bees and butterflies, while also filling the air with a soothing fragrance that can be used in aromatherapy or culinary applications.

Its drought-tolerant nature and pest resistance make it an excellent choice for gardeners seeking a plant that requires minimal attention. The plant’s evergreen foliage adds year-round interest, while its deep roots help prevent soil erosion. Beyond its ornamental appeal, English Lavender is valued for its culinary uses, with the flowers and leaves often incorporated into dishes, baked goods, and beverages, as well as for its medicinal properties in essential oils and homemade products. Whether used in borders, hedges, or as a fragrant accent in the garden, English Lavender is a timeless, functional, and beautiful addition to any landscape. Height and spread: Up to 60cm

Growing Information

Pot up plants using free-draining compost, and grow them on in frost free conditions until large enough to plant outside. Once they are well grown, acclimatise English lavender plants to outdoor conditions over 7 to 10 days before planting out on free draining soil in full sun. Lavenders dislike wet ground, particularly during winter. Improve heavy soil conditions by adding coarse grit or sharp sand prior to planting. When growing English lavender in large patio containers, use a well drained soil based compost such as John Innes No. 3. After planting, prune lavender plants to encourage bushy growth.
