Green Lavender Cotton (Santolina Rosmarinifolia virens)

Few plants are as strongly identified by their fragrance and color as Lavender. Lavandula which is the botanical name for Lavender, is native to the Mediterranean region. These plants are noted for their flower colors that can be lavender, purple, pink, or white. Their silvery-green foliage, upright flower spikes, and compact, shrub-like form make them an ideal informal hedge. These evergreen shrubs are ideal for the countryside or to add vibrant color to any urban garden. They can also be planted to create an aromatic border along a path. 

Lavender prefers to grow in a location with full sun exposure and good air circulation. Once established, they have little to moderate watering needs. They are also very low-maintenance plants with minimal pruning requirements.

Lavender can be planted near patios and porches and can act as a natural pest repellent, known to deter mosquitoes, flies, fleas, and other annoying insects!
