With a natural upright habit the foliage is a year round feature, it will flower in summer with typical lavender blue spikes rising above the foliage.

With outstanding foliage colour, this is a little different to other Lavender varieties and well worth seeking out.

Care

Planted in a humus rich well drained soil, Meerlo Lavender is remarkably maintenance free. Prune it directly after flowering to help maintain a bushy compact habit.

It is a plant that can be grown in the general garden border, or try it in a container if desired.

If growing Meerlo Lavender as a hedge, try planting at around 45cm (18 inches) apart, or closer for a faster effect.
