VINTRO BLUE LAVENDER 1gal

Enrich your landscape with the timeless beauty and intoxicating fragrance of 'Vintro Blue' Lavender! This exceptional English Lavender offers masses of deep violet-blue flower spikes that rise elegantly above its compact, mounding form of aromatic, silvery-gray foliage. Imagine stepping into your garden and being enveloped by that classic, calming lavender scent, attracting a delightful array of pollinators like bees and butterflies throughout its long blooming season, from late spring into fall.

'Vintro Blue' Lavender is a perfect fit for a variety of garden applications, whether you're creating a fragrant border, enhancing a rock garden, or adding a touch of charm to containers. It forms a tidy mound, typically reaching 14-18 inches tall and 10-12 inches wide, making it a manageable size for any sunny spot. Here in Prescott, lavender absolutely thrives in our abundant sunshine, requiring at least six hours of direct sunlight daily for the best performance and most prolific blooms. A wonderful bonus for gardeners in areas with wildlife: this variety is naturally deer and rabbit resistant, so you can enjoy its beauty without constant worry about critter damage.

For optimal success, plant your 'Vintro Blue' Lavender in lean, loose, and, most importantly, fast-draining soil. Lavender notoriously dislikes wet feet, so excellent drainage is key. When planting, be sure to blend Watters Premium Mulch with your garden's native soil. This will not only improve drainage but also help to retain the right amount of moisture and suppress weeds, giving your lavender the ideal conditions to flourish. While lavender generally prefers nutrient-poor soil, a gentle boost at planting can be beneficial. Mix in a small amount of Watters 7-4-4 All-Purpose Plant Food to encourage strong root development and help your new 'Vintro Blue' settle in beautifully. Remember, once established, lavender is remarkably drought-tolerant, so err on the side of under-watering rather than over-watering.
