Sensation Blue
LAVANDULA
Sensation™ Lavenders are wonderfully fragrant, easy to grow and sure to be the sensation of your garden. These stunning lavenders have an upright, bushy habit with delicate aromatic foliage and flowers that bloom through autumn, winter and spring. Sensation™ ‘Blue’ has flowers of a deep purple blue with dainty lavender wings. The fragrant flowers and leaves attract a wide range of butterflies, bees and other beneficial insects and birds. A standout in container displays, Sensation™ Lavenders will look great on the patio and verandah or as a wonderful little flowering hedge or border. Space plants 30cm apart and trim often to thicken up the base. Drought, heat and humidity tolerant, Sensation™ Lavenders were bred to cope with the full range of typical climatic conditions in eastern Australia. Select a spot in full sun and make sure to have open free draining soil, as Sensation Lavenders don’t like to be in heavy soil or waterlogged conditions. Evergreen.
