Ruffles French Lavenders, from £17.99 for 10 plants
This is a collection of ruffled French lavenders from Norfolk Lavender, one of Britain's biggest lavender farms. Five different lavenders are included (2 plants from each), ranging from the traditional lilacs to the creamy pink tones of ‘Sugarberry Ruffles’ (pictured). The butterfly tops of each spike has a rippled appearance, hence the name. They'll need winter protection, so might be best grown in pots.Available from: Norfolk Lavender
Six of the Best Lavenders
Whether you want a gorgeous hedge of blue, mauve, pink or white flowers or just a lovely scent wafting across your patio, lavender is the perfect answer. And best of all, it is fairly easy going, as plants go, needing only well-drained alkaline soil and plenty of sunshine.Remember to cut back well after flowering – at least to leaf level – to maintain a compact and tidy bush.
