Lavendula x Intermedia Edelweiss - Lavender - Plant in 2 L Pot

Introduced from the Mediterranean area in the 16th century, Lavendula has become a well established, well known and well loved plant with many different varieties and cultivars. A true Cottage garden plant. Edelweiss is one of the best white varieties. A compact form producing abundant 60-80cm tall spikes of white flowers in summer. Both flowers and foliage are strongly aromatic. A beautiful plant. Easy to grow in most well drained soils, fertile or poor, in a sunny to light shade location. Can be used in a mixed planting or as a stand alone specimen in the garden or can easily be grown in a pot or container. When growing in a pot or other container. Use a good quality compost with 20% added horticultural grit to ensure good drainage. Lavenders hate sitting in water logged soil. Ensure you feed regularly as a hungry plant is a poor performer. We recommend Osmoscote pro 5-6 month applied in the early spring. One application gives all the nutrients the plant requires for the whole year. Often used to form low hedges. This plant has many culinary and medicinal uses, far too many to list here!
