Lavender is a classic garden perennial known for its fragrant foliage and beautiful blooms that attract pollinators. While it takes two years to flower when grown from seed, starting your own plants is a rewarding and economical way to fill your garden. Because these plants come from seed rather than cuttings, you’ll enjoy a natural variation in colour, shape, and form—adding unique charm to every planting. Lavender thrives in sunny, well-drained soils and makes a long-lived addition to ornamental, medicinal, or craft gardens.
Where Can You Grow Lavender?
Lavender grows well in Zones 4-9. Choose a sunny location with well-drained, even sandy soil. Great for raised beds, borders, pollinator gardens, or large containers.
History and Historical Uses
Lavender (Lavandula spp.) has been cultivated for centuries for its calming scent, antiseptic properties, and culinary and ornamental uses. Used in teas, sachets, soaps, oils, and as a natural insect repellent, it has long held a place in both traditional medicine and home gardens around the world.
