Lavandula 'Meerlo'
Meerlo Lavender
Description
Moderate-growing shrubby evergreen perennial to 2-3′ tall x 2′ wide. Overall lavandula is revered for its delightful fragrant and useful foliage in sachets and potpourris. These are some of the most heat, humidity and water-wise lavenders available. The stunning creamy-green foliage is extremely aromatic due to high oil content. Pale blue flowers show in summer. A butterfly and bee magnet for sure! Very low water requirement. Great in rock gardens, bed borders or containers. Prefers full to partial sun exposure.
