A French lavender, Lavandula stoechas 'Greek Mountain' is a impressive, relatively new variety with upright stems up to 60cm tall (2ft) and narrow, very aromatic grey-green leaves. The large, fragrant purple flower heads are held on straight stems in late spring and throughout summer. The flowers are topped with long, deep lilac bracts that look like butterfly wings or bunny ears – hence its common name of bunny ear or butterfly lavender. The silvery leaves and blooms are packed with a heady scent, the purple flowers will provide you a colourful spectacle from early to mid-summer and are a magnet to bees, butterflies and other beneficial creatures, which will have your garden buzzing with life. Perfect for growing either side of doorways, pathways and entrances or for the patio, lavender is perfect for many situations and French lavender is one of the prettiest and eye-catching varieties. Greek Mountain takes well to pots, just make sure that the soil in the container is light and drains well.Once established, French Lavender is extremely drought tolerant, easy to grow and needs very little maintenance – you can keep it in great shape with a little pruning twice a year; trim lightly in mid to late summer, removing spent flower heads. Prune again in early spring, removing about 2.5cm of growth. Supplied as an established plant in a 12cm pot, ready to plant into its final position.
