Lavender Big Bird 200MM

Lavandula pedunculata 'Senbir' 'Big Bird'

I am Lavender Big Bird. My family originated from Europe & North Africa.

Habit Shrub - Long flowering window

Plant family Lamiaceae

I am a long flowering and relatively bushy Lavender. I feature aromatic mid-green foliage with beautiful thick dark purple flower spikes adorned with very large bright mauve birdlike wings that mature to a pale mauve. Blooming in autumn, winter and spring my fragrant blooms are held above my aromatic foliage. I am a great choice in pots. My dense bushy nature suits me to borders along paths and fence lines or mass plant me to stunning effect. Plant me 50-60cm apart to create a stunning low hedge

I am popular and will make you happy because...

My long flowering scented blooms have bright mauve bracts that mature to a pale toned hue

I have a moderately dense habit featuring medium to long mid-green aromatic leaves

I will attract both butterflies & bees to your garden
