English lavender Vera (Lavandula angustifolia) is a classic, compact evergreen noted for richly fragrant summer blooms in purple-blue shades and aromatic foliage. Perfect for sunny, well-drained borders, gravel and Mediterranean-style plantings, containers and low hedges, it thrives on light, free-draining, sandy or chalky soils and tolerates dry conditions. Highly attractive to bees and other pollinators, it typically flowers in mid to late summer and is widely used for sachets, potpourri, aromatherapy and culinary infusions.
