Dried Melissa Lilac Large

Lavender is one of the most popular small garden shrubs. Plants have narrow, oily and aromatic evergreen leaves and bear dense spikes of small tubular flowers in summer. Lavandula angustifolia is commonly known as English lavender. Most varieties yield purple flowers, but some cultivars come in white or pink. Nearly all cultivars and hybrids are extremely attractive to bees, butterflies and hoverflies. They make an excellent cut flower – both in fresh and dried arrangements.

A prolific bloomer, perfect for edging paths and borders, with aromatic foliage that perfumes the garden when brushed against. Soft lilac flowers appear above the fine silvery-green foliage. A wonderful addition to a sunny border or herb garden. An excellent lavender for cutting and drying. Evergreen.
