Notes
'Potpourri Sky Blue' lavender (Lavandula angustifolia 'Potpourri Sky Blue') is a perennial for borders, rock gardens, pollinator gardens, and hedges. It is hardy to USDA zone 5, or down to -20°F (-29°C). This plant likes full or part sun and dry to average, sandy or loamy soil. Deep lavender blue flowers open from early to late summer. The blooms are fragrant and draw butterflies and bees. The evergreen foliage tolerates drought once established.
Pairs well with Purple Coneflower coneflower, Japanese forest grass, and Garlic chives.
