It's the height of summer - cue thunder and lightning, and nothing is more evocative than the heady scent of Lavender in all it's wonderful forms.They are perhaps one of the most highly prized of all the aromatic shrubs, because their foliage not only provides subtle grey accent in decorative borders, but they are suitable for so many different locations in the garden. They are equally at home in shrub borders, rock gardens, containers, or as informal hedging. They form a billowy edging as they tumble out over pathways and lawns where their delicious scent will escape as you brush past them. They grow happily alongside most plants, and are also useful because they have pest-repellent properties

Petersham have put together a beautiful collection of Lavender which is now available - all in bud and flower they have been superbly grown by our nurseryman in Norfolk, there is limited stock of some varieties so an early visit it is advised.

Our favourites include:

Lavandula stoechas fathead
Lavandula sussex
Lavandula augustifolia hidcote
Lavandula hidcote
Lavandula hidcote white
Lavandula intermedia sussex
Lavandula a rosea
