Perfect for adding a touch of romantic cottage garden charm to garden beds, borders and beautiful cut flower arrangements.

Part of the renowned Potomac series, Snapdragon Potomac Lavender has been specifically bred for the commercial cut flower market and is highly prized by professional flower growers and florists for its strong, sturdy stems, exceptional flower quality and excellent vase life. Particularly well suited to flowering during warmer weather, this impressive variety grows to approximately 90–120cm tall, producing long, elegant flower spikes that are ideal for creating stunning floral arrangements and bouquets. Its beautiful lavender to dusky pink blooms combine effortlessly with whites, pinks, purples and other pastel shades, making it a wonderful choice for cutting gardens, cottage gardens and mixed garden borders. The flowers are also attractive to bees and other beneficial pollinators.

For best results, plant in a full sun position in fertile, well-drained soil enriched with organic matter. Water regularly during dry periods and apply a complete fertiliser to encourage healthy growth and an abundance of flowers. Taller stems may benefit from staking, particularly in exposed positions. Regularly harvest flower stems for arrangements or remove spent flower spikes to encourage further flowering. Whether grown for its outstanding cut flowers or as an elegant garden feature, Snapdragon Potomac Lavender will reward you with a magnificent display of beautiful lavender blooms throughout the flowering season.
