Top picks at low prices Lavender Angustifolia Essence PurpleLavandulaEnglish Lavender

‘Essence Purple’ blooms from June until September and creates masses of purple-blue flowers. They sit neatly upon clumps of grey-green foliage that retain their form well and emit a delicious fragrance all year round. Great for using as attractive hedging, adding to borders and patio pots, this Lavender is incredibly versatile and even sits well in cut flower and coastal gardens. Position in full sun and watch it thrive to a height of 45cm, along with a spread of 60cm. Grow English lavender plants 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.
