Lavandula intermedia 'Hidcote Giant' is an aromatic, bushy, rounded, evergreen shrub with long, slender stems and narrow, silvery green leaves. Large and abundant spikes of dense, very fragrant, juicy-looking, dark-violet flowers bloom in summer. Lavandula intermedia 'Hidcote Giant' is not to be confused with the dwarf English ‘Hidcote Blue’, because it is actually a lavandin. Lavandin, or Lavandula x Intermedia, is a hybrid that combines the cold-hardiness of English lavender and heat tolerance of Portugese lavender. It can grow in wide range of soils, but can’t tolerate heavy, wet or waterlogged soils. It prefers average, light, slightly alkaline, dry to medium moist, but well-drained soils, in full sun. Tolerant of urban and coastal conditions. Lavandula intermedia 'Hidcote Giant' is an exceptional plant, especially impressive when planted in masses. Great for herb gardens, beds and borders, banks and slopes, and for growing in containers. Perfect for rock and gravel gardens, but also for cottage, urban, and coastal gardens.
