What's Blooming Now - 'Winter Bee' Spanish Lavender 03/24/10







'Winter Bee' Spanish Lavender (Lavandula stoechas 'Winter Bee') is blooming now. It is much loved by the bees and butterflies. These plants eventually get several feet wide and high, and they produce dark purple flowers. My plants are small, I just put them in the ground at the beginning of March.
This particular lavender is supposed to tolerate the Texas hot/humid and cold/wet weather better than many of the lavender species.
