Joy Creek Photo Archive (c) all rights reserved	Because of its hardiness and compact nature, Lavandula 'Martha Roderick' has become a nursery favorite. The very aromatic foliage begins bright green but ages to a pleasing gray green. Short flower stems with dense spikes of very vibrantly colored flowers. Easy to grow. Good for drying. Summer. 8 in. x 10 in. Bright Violet flowers *Sun Zones 5, 6, 7, 8, 9*
This is a cultivar of Lavandula angustifolia. Lavenders need full sun and very good drainage. Because of our rainy winters, we amend our soil with 1/4 ten gravel and top dress with the same to keep plant stems and foliage from resting on wet soil.
