Royal Velvet English Lavender

Royal Velvet English Lavender is destined for greatness. Lavandula angustifolia 'Royal Velvet' is very showy when blooming plants are covered with long stemmed, dark navy blue and lavender flower spikes. The 3 to 4-inch long flower spikes, which are much longer than Lavandula Hidcote, hold their dark color superbly as a dried flower. Home gardeners will enjoy it for its rapid growth, its long bloom period in late spring/early summer, and tolerance of wet winters. (cutting propagated)
