Lavandula angustifolia ‘Alba’

An elegant white-flowered form of English lavender, forming compact mounds of aromatic silver-grey foliage topped with slender spikes of pure white blooms. Its clean colouring and refined habit make it a beautiful choice for edging, gravel gardens, herb borders, and sunny planting schemes.
