Lavandula angustifolia

Lavandula angustifolia, commonly known as English lavender, is a compact, aromatic perennial prized for its fragrant purple flower spikes and silvery-green foliage. Blooming in early to mid-summer, it attracts pollinators and is widely used in gardens, culinary recipes, sachets, and essential oils. Drought-tolerant and long-lived, it thrives in full sun and well-drained soil, making it a classic choice for borders, cottage gardens, and herb plantings.
