Lavandula X Intermedia ‘Grosso’

Also known as Lavandula Dilly Dilly, this is a pretty, dark flowered, aromatic lavender with narrow leaves. If happy it could get to 100 x 100cm over 5 years.

These grow best planted in full sun, on very free draining soil with good air circulation. Prune after flowering and in mid September to keep the plants compact.

N.B. When clipping several plants with the same tool, have a bucket containing a 5% bleach solution and swish your blades around for 30 seconds between plants to sterilise them. This will help avoid the chance of cross contamination of disease.
