description for "Lavender: Lavandula intermedia "Grosso""
Fat Spike Lavender is a tender perennial in zones 5-10; acts as an annual in colder climates. Under ideal conditions Fat Spike lavender can grow over 2 feet tall. It has leaves that are slightly longer and wider than standard lavenders. The plants also push up bright lavender flowers in midsummer. Fragrance isn't quite as sweet as other lavenders. Gardeners in northern zones should keep the tender perennials and desirable annual herbs indoors during the cold months.
