One of the tallest and most fragrant varieties, 'Provence' grows to be tall and is an excellent choice for creating a hedge.
Exceptionally long, purple/blue spikes of flowers that are complemented by its silver-green foliage, a beautiful sight swaying in the breeze.
Provence’ is a hybrid of Portuguese lavender (Lavandula latifolia) and English lavender (Lavandula angustifolia) that combines the hardiness and longevity of the English lavenders and the longer flowering season of the Portuguese lavenders.
Lavender blooms continuously throughout the summer if flowers are deadheaded.
Lavender plants are the perfect perennial to attract bees & butterflies.

SUN Lavender loves sun. Plant them in a sunny location. Six to eight hours of sun is best, some afternoon shade is fine in the hotter climates.
AIR Good air circulation is essential, especially in areas of high humidity. Lavender is not fond of damp, still air, which makes it prone to root rot. In humid areas, plant them with ample spacing, keeping in mind the mature size of your plant when in bloom and allowing for extra space for good circulation.
SOIL Well-drained soil. This is perhaps the most important factor in success with lavender. Soil should be loose enough to dig with your hands. You can add sand or small gravel to recreate this consistency if your soil is too compact. In areas where drainage may be a problem, mound the soil up to create a raised row or stand-alone mound.
