Description

This is a neatly conforming lavender plant for summer perennial beds. The foliage is aromatic; the color starts out as bright green but ages to a gray green. Flower stems are short with a vibrant violet color. This lavender blooms all summer and mounds to about 2' tall and 2' wide. Flowers are also fragrant and make great dried flower arrangements.

Water Saving Tip:

Make sure ponds and water features aren't leaking, splash out is minimized, and water for streams and waterfalls is recirculated.

Keeping water surface areas small and partially shaded will also reduce evaporation.
