Lavender Hidcote Blue – Fragrant English Lavender with Deep Purple Summer Flowers

This compact evergreen shrub is perfect for adding colour, fragrance, and structure to borders, pathways, containers, and cottage garden planting schemes.
Supplied as a healthy established 5L plant, Lavender Hidcote is garden-ready and easy to grow. Its highly scented flowers attract bees, butterflies, and pollinating insects, while its drought-tolerant nature makes it an excellent low-maintenance choice for sunny gardens.
