This is by far the
most popular variety of English Lavender we sale. Customers just can not seem to get
enough of this wonderfully fragrant perennial. Rich lavender flower spikes fill the
air with their classic lavender scent all summer. Blooms are held above compact plants
that grow to a height of around 15 inches in height. Its short, compact, growth
makes Munstead a good choice for edging along pathways or as a small hedge.
This particular variety is considered to be the hardiest Lavender on the market.
