Product Description
Lavender 'Hidcote' is the classic, hardy English perennial, and this much-loved cottage garden favourite will transform your garden with colour and incredible fragrance and flower power! Named after the world-famous garden in The Cotswolds and awarded the prestigious RHS Award of Garden Merit, this compact variety is a proven winner in UK gardens. Suitable for edging a path or for planting as a fragrant hedge or garden border where its magnificent scent will delight anyone who walks past!
A perfect solution to attract bees and other pollinators into your garden, Lavender makes an ideal companion plant if you grow your own fruit and veg It’ll stay compact too, reaching 45-60cm (1-2ft) tall so won’t take over your garden either.
Very hardy, incredibly easy to grow and drought tolerant, a top growing tip is to clip lavender back lightly after the flowers have faded in late summer. Cut the stems back by a few inches, but not so far that the stems are bare of live foliage, and plants will then have time to produce new shoots before winter dormancy. The clippings can then be uses to make fragrant indoor displays and potpourri!
This drought-tolerant plant will thrive in a sunny border, container, herb or gravel gardens. If you garden on heavy clay, it is worth adding some grit to improve drainage and to open the soil up. Space plants 90cm (3ft) apart, or if growing a hedge, 30cm (1ft) apart or, 45cm (18in) for larger cultivars. Lavender can be grown in large pots, 30-40cm (1ft-16in) diameter, using a multipurpose or loam-based compost such as JI No 3, with some extra coarse grit, (up to 30%), to improve drainage, along with some controlled release fertiliser granules.
Supplied as 20 x super-sized, Garden-Ready plants to provide you with fast results for the minimum amount of effort they’ve been lovingly nurtured and grown on so that they are ready to plant out immediately. Your lavender plants will be delivered to you in time to create fabulous and long-lasting displays - just plant them straight into your pots, hanging baskets or beds and borders and look forward to great displays with absolutely no fuss.

Plant Information
Top Tips
In late summer, clip the plants back lightly after the flowers have faded to encourage more growwth - cut the stems back by a few inches, but not so far that the stems are bare of live foliage, and plants will then have time to produce new shoots before winter dormancy.
Care Guide
- An easy to grow, evergreen shrub that produces masses of beautifully scented flowers above silvery-grey foliage.
- Drought-tolerant, lavender thrives in a sunny border, container, herb or gravel gardens.
- Best planted between April and when the soil is warming up, ensure that the plants gets really good drainage and there's no need to improve the soil as lavender thrives in any poor or moderately fertile conditions.
- Water regularly.
- Lavenders should be pruned every year to keep them compact.
On established plants use secateurs to remove flower stalks and about 2.5cm (1in) of the current year’s growth - usually in late summer, after flowering - making sure that some green growth remains. - You can prune lightly in April if required.

Until this last order I have had no problems with Garden BargainsProduct:
I ordered 20 lavender plants as advertised on tv, 10 each of 2 varieties. I recieved 20 plants of the same variety with no indication of which variety they were. I believe that these were 2 seperate offers with different order numbers. Having said that, they are very good plants, so I didn't complain.

Thank you for contacting us.
I'm pleased to hear you're happy with your plants - I can confirm your order was for 20 lavender Hidcote plants, rather than two separate varieties.

A shop would have had the plants returned as damaged goods. Customer services a joke. Stick to buying bulbs as plug plants will arrive either in good condition or bad.Product:
Arrived with dry lose soil, due to weather, plants are slow to establish themselves.

Plants were delivered in 2 small boxes inside one large box, the large box was not big enough meaning the small boxes were packed sideways so all the plants had fallen out of the trays & were broken, out of 40 plants in the delivery only 12 survived the delivery to me, it took 7 days from dispatch to delivery which is far to long.Product:
Plants dried out & only 12 survived the delivery
