Full details

Lavender Angustifolia Rosea is an ideal choice for gardeners looking for a quintessentially British aesthetic, perfect for low hedging, rose borders, and kitchen gardens. This variety is celebrated for its striking imperial pink flowers and robust nature, making it highly drought-tolerant once established.

FAQs

Will the plant arrive in bloom?

Not necessarily. The plants are dispatched based on growth cycles, and you may receive one that is not yet flowering.

Can I grow this in a pot?

Yes, Lavender Angustifolia Rosea is excellent for patio pots, provided the container has good drainage.

What is the best soil type for this lavender?

It prefers poor, gritty, and free-draining soil. Avoid heavy or waterlogged soils.

Is this variety hardy?

Yes, it is well-suited to the UK climate and is very resilient once it has established its root system.

How do I prune it?

Prune back the flower spikes once they have faded. You can lightly trim the foliage but avoid cutting into old, woody growth.

Troubleshooting

Plant growth is sparse or leggy

The plant is likely not receiving enough sunlight or is planted in soil that is too rich. Ensure it has full sun exposure.

Leaves turning yellow or brown

Check soil drainage. Excess moisture trapped around the roots often causes yellowing; ensure the plant is not sitting in standing water.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

When your 9cm pot arrives, remove it from the packaging and allow it to adjust to your garden environment.

Preparation: Choose a sunny spot with soil that drains freely. If you have heavy clay soil, add grit to the planting hole to improve drainage.
Planting: Dig a hole twice the size of the 9cm pot. Place the plant so the top of the root ball is level with the soil surface.
Watering: Water the plant thoroughly after installation and continue to monitor for water needs until it is fully established.
Pruning: Trim back the flower spikes after they have finished blooming to keep the plant neat and encourage healthy growth for the following season.
Care: Avoid overwatering, as this is the primary cause of decline for Lavandula species.
