Description:
Lavender, Rosea (Lavandula angustifolia)
Lavender, Rosea – Lavandula angustifolia
Lavender, Rosea – Lavandula angustifolia is a pink flowered lavender with green grey aromatic foliage. It looks great when mixed with Hidcote.
Can be planted as an attractive hedge. Alternatively plant one as a border specimen or in a container. The flowers are also attractive to bees and pollinators.
As with all lavenders it prefers well drained soil in full sun. Relatively easy to grow, simply cut back the flower stalks after they have finished, and then trim back plants again in April, if necessary.
Throughout history lavender has been famous for its medicinal properties. The essential oil is still in huge demand worldwide.
Lavender is also a tasty culinary herb to grow. Use in many recipes such as desserts, baking, cool drinks and cocktails. Try a delicious lavender lemonade in summer months!
