Lavandula dentata - French Lavender

Market price from $8.35 to $17.25

Lavandula dentata is more than your ordinary garden extra, it's a starring perennial that's steadfast, aromatic, and a complete head-turner of a shrub. Genially known as French Lavender, this Mediterranean native is a hardy fellow from the Lamiaceae family. It personifies resilience with its greater hardiness compared to its English counterparts, manifesting less susceptibility to pests and diseases, yet a remarkable potency in attracting pollinators. Sprouting up to a height of 3 feet, it's crowned with an alluring tapestry of purple-blue blooms from late spring to autumn, providing a prolonged display of vibrant beauty. The foliage doesn't retreat in the background either; its mid-green to gray-green linear leaves, distinctively toothed at the edges, contribute to the plant's overall charm. And let's not forget the calming fragrance it emits, filling your gardens, pots, or borders with soothing notes. With full sun exposure and low water usage, it thrives particularly in well-drained, sandy soils, making it not only visually captivating but also a low-maintenance leading act in your landscape. Embrace French Lavender—an enduring, aesthetically pleasing, yet sensible choice for your gardening ventures.
