Top performing Leigh Lavenders are ideally suited to New Zealand gardens with a range of rich colours, forms and fragrances. These long flowering plants love the hot dry Kiwi summer climate and will equally work well in pots or the garden. Evergreen. PVR

These quick growing perennials are great in pots mixed with other perennials in the flower garden or even as a small clipped hedge. A great companion plant for a potager garden plant near a path or deck to enjoy the fragrance of the foliage and flowers. Lavenders grow best in full sun in a well-drained position. A light trim or deadhead during spring and summer will encourage repeat flowering. Trim more vigorously at the end of summer to rejuvenate your plant for spring.
Suitable for warmer areas including Auckland/Northland
