Product information
Are you looking to introduce reliable fragrance and structure that lasts all year in your garden borders? Meet Lavandula angustifolia ‘Munstead’, a cherished variety known for its reliably compact, bushy growth habit and delightful summer scent. This evergreen shrub maintains its grey-green, aromatic foliage throughout the cooler UK months, ensuring visual interest even when not in bloom.
From late spring into high summer, this plant rewards you with highly fragrant spikes of blue and purple flowers, peaking between May and August, which are incredibly attractive to bees and butterflies, supporting local pollinator populations. As an upright shrub, it maintains a neat profile without demanding excessive pruning, although leaving the seed heads provides a little winter interest for garden birds.
To thrive in your UK setting, this lavender requires a position receiving full sun, and crucially, it needs well-drained soil; it happily accepts chalky or neutral to alkaline conditions but struggles if sitting in damp ground, so improving drainage is key in heavy clay areas. It is perfectly suited for creating low edging, defining borders, or planting within patio pots, making it an excellent choice for creating sensory planting schemes near pathways.
