description for "Lavender: Lavandula x Intermedia 'Hortensis'"
Dutch Lavender is a tender perennial in zones 5(with protection)-10; acts as an annual in colder climates. Dutch lavender is more compact than its close cousins, Munsted and Hidcote. The foliage also has a slightly more silvery cast. Dutch lavender develops spikes of purplish-blue blooms in midsummer. Give it good drainage and a sunny position in the garden. Gardeners in northern zones should keep the tender perennials and desirable annual herbs indoors during the cold months.
