Product Information
With its compact shape and dark purple flowers, Lavandula angustifolia is one of the best known lavender species. Lavender is a wonderfully fragrant, perennial plant from the Mediterranean region. As early as the 17th century, the French cultivated lavender for the perfume industry. Today, lavender not only brightens the garden, but is also a great asset in the home and kitchen. In the kitchen, young leaves can be used when preparing lamb or mutton, in fish dishes and stews. Lavender's fragrant stems are ideal for cutting or drying, and its nectar-rich flowers are particularly attractive to bees, as well as humans. Lavender is ideal for borders, low hedges and pots.
Care
When properly cared for, lavender plants can bloom profusely. Prune the plants twice a year, in April and in October. If you prune in October, do so to 10 to 15cm above the ground, but be sure to leave a patch of greenery. The second pruning of lavender takes place after flowering, between August and October. The spent flowers should be removed by cutting them off. Any protruding twigs can also be removed. Water the lavender plants regularly and make sure they get enough light.
Plant height
When delivered, the plants have a height of 10 to 15cm (measured incl. pot). The plants are delivered in pots with a diameter of 10.5cm.
