Lavandula angustifolia Rosea is a beautifully soft variation of English lavender, producing pale pink flower spikes above compact grey green foliage. It brings a gentle, romantic feel to sunny borders and blends easily with cottage garden planting, gravel gardens and Mediterranean style schemes. The scented blooms appear in summer and attract bees and other pollinators, while the tidy, bushy habit provides year round structure. Rosea offers a lighter, more delicate alternative to traditional purple lavenders and is ideal for adding soft colour to bright, free draining spots.

This plant is supplied as a young perennial plug around 3 to 5 cm in size. These smaller plants grow on quickly once potted and usually take around eight to twelve weeks to reach the size of a typical 9 cm pot. When your young plant arrives, unpack it straight away and water gently if the compost feels dry. Pot the plug into a small pot using fresh compost and keep the compost lightly moist while the roots establish. Once the plant has grown on and the risk of frost has passed, it can be planted into the garden where it will develop into a healthy, long lasting perennial.
