Maintenance Notes:Lavender have woodier stems than the average perennial and are somewhat evergreen – they’re used to holding their foliage through winter. Because of this a hard trim in fall is usually not good for them. They need the woody structure to protect the crown of the plant through winter. This plant prefers sandy/loamy soil and not clay.
Gardeners around the world have been growing lavender for centuries for its intensely fragrant flowers, beautiful appearance, and ease of culture.
Along comes SWEET ROMANCE™, destined to become a favorite because of its ability to bloom the first year. Additionally, it begins to flower a bit earlier in the season, typically in early summer and lasting into early fall.
The grey-green foliage forms a compact mound topped with plump, rich violet purple flower wands that are perfect for cutting for fresh and dried bouquets. Clusters of tiny flowers appear at the nodes up the stem in addition to the terminal inflorescence, adding color down into the plant.
