Description

Hi, my name is Munstead Lavender! I am often seen as Hidcote English Lavender's little sister - I look very similar and I am equally hardy, just with much less height! I am the definition of small but mighty - I bloom profusely in the spring and my short size and tightly held blooms make me a great choice for a low hedge. I am a very low maintenance shrub. Though I do prefer alkaline soils, I can thrive in any soil type, and I am extremely tolerant to urban pollution and drought. My one request is that I am never left in standing water - I am very dramatic when my feet get wet!

  • Drought-tolerant: This plant is well-suited for hot, dry conditions, making it a great option for gardeners who live in arid climates or want to conserve water.
  • Attractive to pollinators: Munstead Lavender's blooms are a magnet for bees and butterflies, making it a great choice for anyone looking to support pollinators in their garden.

Care Guide

  • Watering: Munstead Lavender prefers well-drained soil, so avoid overwatering. Water deeply once a week during the growing season, and reduce frequency during winter.
  • Maintenance:
  • Pruning: In early spring, prune back dead stems to just above the new growth. After flowering, remove spent blooms and cut back about one-third of the plant to encourage bushiness. Avoid cutting into old woody growth, as it may not regrow.
  • (Optional):Fertilizer: Munstead Lavender generally does not require fertilizer. If soil tests show a deficiency, apply a balanced, slow-release fertilizer in early spring or midsummer.
