About this plant

Lavandula ‘Hidcote’ is a classic English lavender that thrives in full sun and well-drained, lean soil. Compact spikes of deep violet-blue flowers rise above silvery-gray aromatic foliage from early to midsummer, attracting bees and butterflies. This fragrant perennial is excellent for edging pathways, herb gardens, and cutting for fresh or dried arrangements. Its low water needs once established make it ideal for sunny, well-drained sites.
