Spanish Lavender

Lavandula stoechas, known for its unique 'rabbit ear' bracts, is a compact evergreen shrub with a mounding growth habit. It features aromatic, narrow, silvery-green foliage that remains attractive year-round. This Mediterranean native thrives in full sun and well-drained, alkaline soil, showing excellent drought tolerance once established. Ideal for rock gardens, borders, or containers, it attracts pollinators while resisting deer. Regular light pruning helps maintain its tidy shape.
