Description:
This lovely French lavender (Lavandula pedunculata) is called 'The Princess'. It has lovely grey-green foliage but its best quality is the flowers which are produced in masses over a long period from late spring through summer.

Shear lightly after flowering and in early spring. Grow in thin soils in hot spots.
