'Regal Splendour' Spanish lavender (Lavandula stoechas 'Regal Splendour') is an herb for borders, containers, rock gardens, and xeriscape. It is hardy to USDA zone 7, or down to 0°F (-18°C). This plant likes full sun and dry to average, sandy, loamy, or chalky soil. It blooms in early to late spring and again in early to late summer. Deer and rabbits usually look elsewhere for a meal.
