Description:
Lavandula Mulberry Ruffles bear deep pink flowers from early to mid spring. The chunky bracts on top of the flower heads are distinctively rippled along their margins, to give the ruffled appearance for which the collection has been named after. The RUFFLES Collection has a tight compact habit, with aromatic grey foliage. The flowers are born close to the plant, forming domes of bright colour and an impressive display for any garden or landscape. Great for hedging, containers and for adding fragrance to entertainment areas.
