Lavender Hidcote Dark Blue, Outdoor Garden Ready, 2L Pot
Fragrant evergreen perennials with richly coloured flower spikes, bringing classic Mediterranean charm, pollinator activity and summer colour to borders, containers and herb gardens.
Lavender ‘Hidcote’ varieties are among the most popular English lavenders, prized for their dense spikes of aromatic flowers and neat, compact habit. Their fragrant blooms appear from early to mid-summer, rising above silvery-green foliage to create soft clouds of colour that attract bees, butterflies and other beneficial pollinators. The plants form tidy, rounded mounds that typically reach 40–60 cm tall with a similar spread, making them perfect for edging pathways, sunny borders, patio containers and wildlife-friendly gardens.
Supplied as strong, well-established 2L pot-grown plants, each lavender arrives with a dense, well-developed root system that supports quick establishment after planting. Unlike smaller starter plants, these nursery-grown specimens have already developed the structure and vigour needed for dependable garden performance. Professionally cultivated in high-quality peat-free compost at our Yorkshire nursery, they are raised under expert care to ensure healthy growth, abundant flowering and long-term reliability.
