Native to the Mediterranean region, lavender’s intoxicating perfume has kept it in cultivation for centuries. Lavender is ideal for culinary use because it’s rich in essential oils. A favorite ornamental for landscapes, the blue-violet blooms are striking against gray-green foliage.

Plant in spring and enjoy year-round; expect blooms in summer and aromatic foliage even in winter.

Some Bonnie Plants varieties may not be available at your local stores, as we select and sell varieties best suited to the growing conditions in each region.

Love this plant along with Rosemary. Only problem I have is that if your potting soil has a lot of peat add some sand because as the season progresses the peat compacts and acts a sponge very detrimental to lavender. (Posted on August 24, 2012)
