Lavandula

(Lavender) Angustifolia Felice

Picture silvery-green mounds topped with violet-blue flower spikes and humming with bees all summer. This compact lavender grows to about 60 cm tall and 50-60 cm wide, so it fits a sunny border, a path edge or a big pot. For a full, fragrant display, plan on 5-7 per square metre. Bees and butterflies love the nectar, and you'll notice the scent every time you brush past. Put this green friend along the patio or as a low hedge, and your whole terrace smells like a holiday. Depending on the season, it may arrive in bud or just before flowering.

Give it a spot in full sun: lavender needs plenty of light to flower well and keep its scent. Plant it in well-draining, rather lean soil, because wet roots are what it dislikes most, so mix in some grit if your soil is heavy. Water regularly while it settles in, then only during long dry spells, and check pots more often because containers dry out faster. Prune right after flowering, taking off about a third of the green growth, but never cut into old bare wood, since it rarely sprouts again. It is fully hardy and happy outdoors all winter, just keep potted plants on the dry side in a sheltered spot.
