Lavender 'Christiana', 2L Garden Medium from clusters of tinged budsAn unusual, tender variety of lavender, which will require wintering under cover, Lavendula Christiana is a striking specimen with tall trident spikes of fragrant blue flowers that bloom intermittently through the year, held on long stems. The evergreen foliage is aromatic and serrated, like some artemisias, but with the distinctive lavender colouring of silvery grey green leaves.
