About This Item
Lavandula angustifolia is old-fashioned favorite of gardeners everywhere, and it is rich in essential oil making it very fragrant both fresh and even once it is dried. This variety, Hidcote Blue, reaches 10 - 18 inches in height and 12 inches in width with an erect, compact growth habit making it perfect for hedges.
Lavender hidcote grows as a 10 - 18 tall perennial herb and flowering plant growing in USDA zones 6 - 9.
Hidcote Blue produces dark violet-blue blooms that have a lovely fragrance and a long bloom season. The foliage is blue-green and also nicely aromatic. Lavender is a perennial that is heat and drought tolerant.
The fragrant blooms attract bees and butterflies all summer long, and the blooms are nice for cutting and drying as well. Lavender is usually resistant to both deer and rabbits.
In the spring, start 5 seeds per plant indoors 6 – 8 weeks before the last expected frost. Press the seed into the soil, cover the seed very lightly, and keep it moist. With a temperature of 72 - 75F, germination is normally within 21 days.
After danger of frost has passed, transplant the seedlings outdoors and space the plants 20 inches apart. Lavender prefers to grow in full sun and in gritty, sharply-draining soil. Trim plants back in the early spring to encourage bushier growth. Deadhead spent blooms to encourage continuous blooming.
