Description
(24-36" tall x 24-30" wide) White-flowered Lavandula intermedia 'Edelweiss' (French Hybrid Lavender) is a mid-sized cultivar with unusual
coloring that is a must-have in any waterwise perennial garden. The
flower buds emerge pale pink, opening to snowy white flowers. With a
profuse summer display of white flowers and sweetly aromatic flowers and
foliage, this French hybrid is recommended to plant with 'Phenomenal'
and other blue-flowered French hybrid cultivars. 'Edelweiss' is strongly
fragrant, making it an excellent source of dried flower stems and dried
flowers for crafts. For best results, grow in well-drained soil in full
sun. Cut back the flower stalks after they have finished blooming.
Prune back plants in early spring, if necessary.
