Generous, sprawling plant
I followed the suggestion of another reviewer and planted these in pots by the patio. The plants sprawl elegantly and flower until the frosts.

"Grown across Provence, a billowing mound of dark-blue tapering flowers, held on long stems, splaying outwards in late summer and autumn above a close mound of foliage that can be shaped for winter interest."

Great for softening edges of patio. Good variety nice fragrance and beautiful. Good size, will see if it copes with extreme conditions here at the cliff edge.

My favourite lavender for medium to big pots and as a " filler" in herbeaceous border. It fans out like a fountain-wonderful.
