Lavandula stoechas "Fairy Wings" ™

Lavandula stoechas "Fairy Wings" ™
Flowers: "Fairy Wings" has distinctive long, lilac-pink bracts that give a wild effect to an otherwise neat, compact plant The lilac-pink bracts that give "Fairy Wings" its name are its most unusual characteristic. The flowers grow a few inches beyond the compact foliage. The flowers can be dried and used as potpourri. Foliage: tends to be more green than silver.

Planting: Similar to all lavender cultivars "Fairy Wings" likes well-drained soil and full sun. It does not like cold climates.

Mature height: .50m x .75m wide or (24" x 30" wide)

Another quality that sets it apart is its neat growing habit. Unlike many lavenders, it doesn't sprawl or grow so tall that it falls down.
