Lavender Margeret Roberts

Description

Margaret Roberts Lavender (Lavandula angustifolia ‘Margaret Roberts’)

Description:
Margaret Roberts Lavender is a fragrant and hardy variety, perfect for adding a pop of soothing color and a calming scent to any garden. With silvery-green foliage and clusters of violet-blue flowers, this lavender is both ornamental and practical, as it attracts sugar birds and beneficial insects while also being drought-tolerant.

Growing Conditions:

Sunlight: Full sun is essential for robust growth and blooming.

Soil: Prefers well-drained, sandy or loamy soil with a slightly alkaline to neutral pH.

Watering: Once established, it’s drought-tolerant; water sparingly to avoid root rot.

Climate: Thrives in mild to warm climates; can withstand frost but may need protection in extreme cold.

Spacing: Plant with 30-40 cm between plants for good airflow and to prevent fungal issues.

Care Tips:
Prune lightly after flowering to maintain shape and encourage new growth. Mulching around the base helps conserve moisture and deter weeds but avoid mulching too close to the stems to prevent moisture buildup.
