About Lavender
Upright spikes of small flowers rebloom into fall with regular deadheading. Very fragrant and dries beautifully for potpourri. A tender perennial from southern Europe. Very few varieties are fully hardy in Minnesota, but can be over-wintered indoors or treated as an annual. Needs excellent drainage to survive the winter. Can be added to sugar, shortbread, or lemonade. Deer- and rabbit-resistant.
