French Lavender or Lavandula Stoechas (also Lavandula Pedunculata)
Lavender or Lavandula, is an aromatic family of herbs native to Mediterranean, distinct for its lilac flowers and strong scent. This particular variety is known as French Lavender, but also as Lavandula Pedunculata, Lavandula Stoechas Papillon, Lavandula Butterfly and Lavandula Papillon. It is a dwarf evergreen variety with an intense fragrance, narrow grey-green leaves, and deep purple flowers, borne in dense terminal heads. The small violet flowers appear on the plant throughout the summer: depending on the area you live in, they can appear as early as late May. They are very fragrant and will attract beneficial pollinators into your garden.

French Lavender is a recipient of the coveted Award of Garden Merit (AGM) by the Royal Horticultural Society, which speaks volumes about its qualities and performance in UK gardens.

Height and Spread of French Lavender
A bushy dwarf shrub, Lavandula Pedunculata will achieve a maximum height and width of 50 centimetres to 1 metre in a period of 5 years.

How Hardy is French Lavender
Lavandula Stoechas is native to the Mediterranean, so it requires milder climates to thrive. It is hardy in coastal and relatively mild parts of the United Kingdom, where winter temperatures do not drop below -5 degrees Celsius.

How To Use French Lavender
Lavender is best enjoyed when planted en masse: the fields of violet and the heady perfume they spread look stunning. The fragranced flowers are adored by pollinators, so lavender often finds its place in wildlife-friendly gardens, but you can grow this versatile dwarf evergreen shrub in containers as well.

How To Care For French Lavender

Lavandula Pedunculata does best in well-drained soil, in a sunny, sheltered spot in the garden.

Pro care tips: Do not overwater French Lavender. It prefers drier conditions. After the flowers fade, cut back the stalks for a neater shape. In April, carefully trim back but be sure not to cut into old wood.
