Description

(Lavender) The perfect size for garden borders, Lavandula 'SuperBlue' packs a lot of color for a compact perennial. Beautiful large, lavender-blue blooms are nestled just above the foliage on shorter stems with less gaping for a fuller more flowerful looking plant. Lavender 'SuperBlue' is a compact 10-12 inches tall and wide creating a nice mounding habit. Beautifully fragrant, Lavandula 'SuperBlue' is a great cut and dried flower that adds fragrance to your home & garden. Hardy in zones 5-8, lavandula like to be planted in full sun with well-drained soil. We recommend in areas of high humidity, using rock instead of mulch as a top dressing. Drip irrigation directly around lavender is not recommended. In early spring, trim to shape as new growth emerges. Enjoy this long-blooming, free-flowering perennial from early summer to fall with a light trim as flowers fade to encourage a rebloom. A perfect addition for borders, rock gardens, and container gardens.

Superb Lavender

I purchased 11 SuperBlue last year. They arrived incredibly healthy and much larger than anticipated. From the get go, they established quickly and put on nonstop blooms. This year they matured more but their blooms did not stop. I did trim back once- maybe enf July/August. It is now October zone5b and they still are in bloom. They do seem as if they will spread a bit. Outstanding lavender. I do have them planted next to roses. Stunning combination.
