Lavender Hidcote

Hidcote Purple

    A wonderful Lavender plant also called 'Hidcote Variety' or 'Hidcote Blue' that bears masses of flowering spikes with a rich purple flowers. This is a mid-sized, semi-dwarf variety when considering mature plant size.

     The bright color of the flowers are retained when dried and look wonderful in  craft arrangements or wreaths. Lavender Hidcote is one of my favorite plants due to intense purple color.

                                          

     This variety gets its name from Hidcote Manor in England as it was cultivated there by Major Lawrence Johnston. This Lavender variety is thought to be a cultivar of Lavandula angustifolia.  The flower color of this plant is simply amazing as it is very purple!

Hidcote Giant

     An intermediate Lavandin and very vigorous grower (36 - 40 inches) with a lovely strong fragrance. This has large deep Lavender-purple flowers on very long 24 inch stems.

Hidcote Pink

     Almost identical and sometimes confused with Nana Rosea but the foliage is much grayer and the leaves are much narrower in form. This is a dwarf English cultivar. Pink Lavender contrasts beautifully especially planted next to the dark purple of Hidcote or a white flower variety.
