Lavandula angustifolia Big Time Blue
Big Time Blue Lavender
A lavender variety distinguished by its beautiful spikes of intense lavender-blue flowers. These fragrant flowers appear throughout the summer and are supported by aromatic grey-green foliage. This compact, shrubby lavender is ideal for beds, borders or even pots. It brings beautiful colour and a pleasant fragrance to gardens while attracting pollinators such as bees and butterflies. It is drought tolerant once established, but moderate watering is recommended during the planting phase. It is important not to overwater, as excess moisture can cause root rot. Lavender can also tolerate poor soils, making it an ideal plant for dry and Mediterranean gardens. It is recommended to protect the roots by applying a light mulch during the winter in colder areas. Pruning is usually done after flowering, in early autumn or early spring, to remove dead stems and encourage new growth. Regular pruning helps maintain a compact shape and encourage abundant flowering each year.
