Lavandula stoechas - Spanish Lavender

Market price from $8.35 to $19.99

Lavandula stoechas is a standout perennial shrub hailing from the sunny Mediterranean. This vibrant beauty, also known as Spanish Lavender, elegantly grows 30-60 cm tall and favors a full sun exposure to showcase its dark purple flower heads. The flowers possess an eye-catching, unique quality with their delicate, petal-like bracts - a feature that bears an amusing resemblance to rabbit ears. As if crafted by an artist's hand, the narrow silver-green leaves lend an alluring contrast, enhancing the shrub's overall aesthetic appeal. Not merely a feast for the eyes, its slightly piney fragrance captivates the senses and attracts butterflies, adding a dynamic element to your garden. Spanish Lavender showcases great resilience, thriving in well-drained soil and demonstrating impressive drought tolerance once established, making it the low-maintenance yet striking addition every garden needs. Despite its delicate appearance, the plant is resistant to common garden intruders such as deer and rabbits. With its exquisite blossoms, enduring fragrance, and Mediterranean charm, Lavandula stoechas offers a symphony of visual and sensory delights that will elevate any outdoor space.
