Lavenders
As with most silver-leaf plants, the highly scented lavenders are an excellent choice for dry, free-draining soil, and should do well in sandy or chalky ground. In fact, you should find that chalky conditions actually enhance the fragrance of these evergreen, drought-tolerant plants.
We stock a range of both the hardier English lavenders and their showier French cousins. Our lavenders are usually available as both 9cm specimens, priced £2.99, and as larger 2 or 3 litre plants, priced £5.99.
