Lavender boarder

Lavender boarder

Question from Paula moynihan

1066 1

I want to create a continuous lavender border along a border down a drive. How far apart should I plant them in order to get a boarder without gaps?

Hi, Paula,
To plant a lavender border/hedge, space smaller cultivars (roughly those that get under 45/50cm tall) 30cm apart, larger ones 45cm apart. Plant on a ridge to improve drainage - lavender is short-lived in wet, clay conditions. You can do a search here on Shoot of Lavandula angustifolia to get ideas of the cultivars available.
