Botanical nameLavandula angustifolia
Lavandula angustifolia ‘Annet’, known in the garden as Lavender ‘Annet’, combines purple-toned blooms with a volume that is easy to place within the composition. Among its distinctive details: fragrant flowers. The foliage features shades of green, bronze, and copper, which should be highlighted among different textures. The usual flowering period is June-September. At maturity, expect 45.5 cm in height and 45.5 cm in width, which suggests its use in the middle of flowerbeds and in group plantings. The leaf margins contribute to the contrast and deserve a visible place from the pathway.
Regarding cultivation, Lavender ‘Annet’ prefers full sun exposure; the recommended soil is well-drained, rather light; avoid water pockets around the crown. After planting Lavender ‘Annet’, water enough to thoroughly moisten the root ball. Once established, allow the surface to dry between waterings and prioritize drainage, especially during thaws. Keep 45.5 cm as a guideline between plants; this helps preserve their shape and access for care. The indicated hardiness zone is 4, to be assessed according to your garden conditions.
Over the seasons, Lavender ‘Annet’ benefits from timely care: lightly prune the leafy shoots after flowering, without harshly cutting back old wood devoid of leaves. Winter drainage is very important for lavender; waterlogged soil during thaws weakens its base. For companion planting, consider border sages, yarrows, and catmints of varieties with similar needs. The flowering (June-September) and the spread of 45.5 cm will serve as benchmarks for distributing other plants around this plant.
