Lavandula × ginginsii ‘Goodwin Creek Grey’
Hybrid Lavender |
USDA Zone: 7-9 |
Plant number: 1.315.170
A hybrid with French Lavender, discovered in Oregon. This selection is best grown in pots or tubs, to be wintered indoors in all but very mild winter regions. It forms a bushy shrub of bright silvery-grey leaves, bearing tall spikes of deep-purple flowers over a very long season. One of the best types for forming into topiary shapes, this is easily pruned to keep a compact size. Choose a location with excellent drainage. In regions with clay soils, a raised bed or rock garden will improve success greatly. Attractive to butterflies. Drought tolerant, once established.
