Lavender, Czech (Lavandula angustifolia krajova ) potted plant, organic
$8.50 – $57.00
Family: Mint (Lamiaceae)
Hardy to Zones 5 to 9
(Country Lavender, Czech Lavender) Beautiful blue-flowered, long-lived cultivar from Northern Europe. High essential oil content, and the fragrance has a mellow quality that is nonetheless pervasive. Plant is very cold tolerant. Flowers to 3 feet high. Plants prefer full sun and a dry to mesic, well-drained soil. Commonly grown in open fields or as landscape plants, mellowing the corners and curbs between buildings, driveways and sidewalks. They are tough to the sun, and should be trimmed back in the fall to prevent large amounts of snow from accumulating on them. Space plants 2 to 3 feet apart.
Potted plant, Certified Organically Grown

Well Richo, I am going to be brave and try to grow them in my zone 4 . We have not had zone 4 Temps in 35 years and I have been able to grow zone 5 plants here.

Hello! What size are the plants that come in the 10-pack? Is it okay to plant them now in October, Zone 5b?

Hi Theresa,
Thanks for writing and for wanting these great plants. 5b is too cold for fall planting of lavender. It would be better to wait until spring. The plants will be bigger, then, too. I’m not sure how big these are right now–our lavenders are usually 6 inches tall without the pot.

Is there a way to tell the difference between Czech and English lavender?

hi tom, the czech is a subspecies of L. angustifolia. I can tell the difference because the Czech is plumper and has a more purple flower. Must be the beer. r

Hi there! 8b is good for any lavender–they are Mediterranean in origin. Richo
