Lavender Munstead Dwarf

Neat, dwarf variety, strongly fragrant producing a prolific quantity of deep blue flowers. Perfect for hedging and cut flowers and ideal for drying. Flowers summer. Height: 30-60cm (1-2ft).

Sow from late winter to summer. For best results the seeds should be prechilled before sowing. To do this sow the seeds just below the surface of any good compost. Seal the seeds and container inside a polythene bag and place in a fridge (not freezer) for 6 weeks, checking occasionally to make sure none germinate in the fridge. Then place in a temperature of 15-18C (60-65F). Germination should take 1-3 months after this.

When the seedlings are large enough to handle transplant into 8cm (3in) pots and place in a coldframe.
