Description
Lavandula angustifolia, commonly known as English Lavender, is a perennial evergreen shrub prized for its aromatic, narrow silver-gray foliage and fragrant flower spikes. Blooming from late spring to mid-summer, it produces small flowers in shades of purple, blue, pink, and white. This drought-tolerant plant thrives in full sun and well-drained soil, making it ideal for Mediterranean climates like Cyprus. Low-maintenance and hardy, it is well-suited for ornamental borders, pots, or herb gardens. Though non-toxic to humans, it may cause mild gastrointestinal issues in pets if ingested. It’s perfect for cottage gardens, rockeries, or water-wise landscapes.
