Lavandula angustifolia is an aromatic evergreen shrub with narrow leaves and terminal flower spikes. Lavandula angustifolia has aromatic foliage.
Botanical characteristics
Its woody framework persists beyond one season, unlike annual herbs. Sun and freely draining soil are important: prolonged moisture around the roots is a common cause of loss. Named seed strains remain distinct from plants propagated as identical clones.
Named lavender seed strains
True Lavender, Hidcote Blue and Munstead Strain provide named choices within the bulk seed range. Keep the strain designation when comparing seed references.
