🪴The Best Lavenders for Fragrance and Beauty

from Mountain Gardener with Ken & Lisa · host Ken Lain

Ken and Lisa Lain, The Mountain Gardeners here! Okay, let's talk fragrant lavenders, friends! To guide you to olfactory bliss in your own backyard. We've got a delightful selection blooming right now at Watters!   For that classic lavender scent, you can't beat English Lavender. 'Goodwin Creek offers a taller, shrub-like form with gray leaves and intensely fragrant purple spikes. 'Munstead is more compact, perfect for smaller spaces, and has equally aromatic purple blooms.   Then there are the unique Spanish Lavenders! 'Princess' boasts unusual violet-pink flowers with that signature lavender fragrance. 'Ghostly Princess' offers silvery foliage and pink blooms. And 'Purple Medley' has green leaves and pineapple-like purple flowers.   All lavenders love sun (at least 6 hours) and well-drained soil, thriving even in containers. They're also wonderfully deer—and rabbit-resistant. Plant a few, and let that soothing fragrance fill your garden!   🪴Ken & Lisa Lain, the Mountain Gardeners   Not already a Garden Club Member?
