Lavender ‘Scented Blue Early’ is a compact, early-flowering variety prized for its deep blue-purple flower spikes and strong, traditional lavender fragrance. As the name suggests, it flowers earlier than many lavenders, making it a valuable choice for extending the season in the garden.

 

Plants form neat, well-shaped clumps and perform beautifully in sunny borders, gravel gardens, and containers, provided drainage is good. The fragrant blooms are excellent for cutting and drying, while also being highly attractive to bees and other pollinators.

 

A reliable and rewarding lavender for gardeners who want early colour, scent, and structure with minimal fuss.
