Lavandula angustifolia Hidcote is a classic English lavender known for its deep violet purple flower spikes and compact, tidy habit. The scented grey green foliage provides year round structure, while the summer flowers attract bees and bring a soft, calming feel to borders. Hidcote is ideal for sunny spots, Mediterranean style planting, cottage gardens and edging pathways where its fragrance can be enjoyed. It forms a neat, bushy plant that returns reliably each year when grown in the right conditions.

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.
