Breathtaking classic English lavender
Renowned for its heavy midsummer bloom strength and its excellent heat and humidity tolerance, Lavandula Munstead is a classic English lavender. An evergreen perennial, it makes a breathtaking hedge, but also shines as a border accent and even thrives in large containers. This beloved heirloom deserves a place of honor in your sunny, dry landscape. Reaching 12 inches high and 12 to 24 inches wide with gray-green foliage and bloom stalks that can reach a foot long, Lavandula Munstead is highly aromatic—the foliage makes excellent sachets, potpourri, and more. It is heavenly to brush against in the garden, releasing its scent most strongly when touched.In midsummer, the foliage is topped by masses of bright lavender-blue blooms, very full, rounded, and long lasting. Bees and butterflies are drawn to this plant by the dozen. The classic variety makes wonderful fresh bouquets as well as everlastings.Lavender is an herb, packed with essential oils used in food preparation. Lavandula Munstead is usually used for garden and fragrance purposes, but it can be a source of lavender oil as well. This bushy, well-branched, hardworking little evergreen perennial is a source of so many good things in the garden.Grow Lavandula Munstead in well drained, neutral to alkaline soil in an open, sunny spot. Like all lavenders, Lavandula Munstead needs very well drained soil, and prefers to be kept on the dry side (once established). Very tolerant of heat, humidity, and drought, it is a fine performer in the U.S. Trim back in spring to encourage bushier growth; also deadhead after flowering to keep the plant setting new buds and blooms next season.

Many videos I watched recommended putting the seeds in ziplock bag with a wet paper towel, and leaving it in the fridge for 3-4 weeks. With limited fridge space, I took a chance. Instead of putting it in the fridge for several weeks, I put it in the freezer over night. Then I pulled it out, the next day and I left it in the baggie in a warm sunlit room. Because the paper towel was still pretty wet, and the baggie was sealed, I didn't even have to mess with watering them. With very minimal effort, I've got HUNDREDS of new little lavender sprouts! Not all of the seeds have sprouted yet, but then again, it's only been two weeks. Im excited to see how the rest of the seeds do! This is definitely a huge step in the right direction! I'm completely thrilled with this purchase!
