DESCRIPTION
Lavandula angustifolia ‘Munstead’ is a compact, evergreen shrub known for its fragrant gray-green foliage and spikes of lavender-blue flowers. Blooming in early to mid-summer, the flowers create a calming, aromatic display that enhances garden beds, borders, and containers. The plant's sweet-smelling blossoms are commonly used in sachets, oils, and herbal arrangements, adding both aesthetic and practical value to the garden.
Originating from the Mediterranean region, 'Munstead' thrives in well-drained soils and prefers full sun. It is drought-tolerant once established, making it an ideal choice for low-maintenance gardens or xeriscaping. Its smaller size and neat, bushy growth habit make it perfect for smaller spaces or container gardening. The plant is also known for its ability to attract pollinators like bees and butterflies, contributing to the ecological health of the garden while providing long-lasting, aromatic blooms throughout the summer.
