Description
Lavandula New Madrid® Rose Lavender is an evergreen perennial (tender in Zone 6 and below) that blooms spring and summer. Early and heavy flowering, the plant sets massive, 6-inch, compound flowers covered in bright rose-colored bracts. Borne on short stalks above highly aromatic silvery gray foliage, the flowers are powerfully perfumed and attract masses of bees, butterflies, and hummingbirds. They make excellent additions to fresh or dried arrangements and are popular for crafts and potpourri.
A Lavandula stoechas, commonly called butterfly lavender, French lavender, or Spanish lavender, New Madrid Rose is native to Spain, Portugal, and Italy. It is a compact plant with a tight, upright, mounding habit and medium growth rate. This lavender is perfect for the bed or border front and makes an excellent specimen or "thriller" in a container garden. It is especially well-suited to waterwise gardens.
An easy-care plant, New Madrid Rose grows best in sunny locations with well-draining soil but adapts to most soils and tolerates poor soils, drought, and heat. Water deeply when soil is nearly dry. The plant is deer resistant.
