Lavender ‘LAVINNOVA® Pinkberry Ruffles’

Common Name:
Lavender 'Pinkberry Ruffles'

Description:
Lavender ‘LAVINNOVA® Pinkberry Ruffles’ is a compact, showy lavender cultivar bred for outstanding flower size, vivid colour contrast, and reliable performance in Australian conditions. This standout variety features deep rose-purple flower bracts crowned with soft blush-pink ruffled petals, giving the blooms a bicolour effect that is both romantic and striking. The aromatic, silvery-grey foliage adds year-round structure and pairs beautifully with the warm tones of the blooms. Flowering begins in early spring and continues well into summer, with light flushes again in autumn in Melbourne’s climate. ‘Pinkberry Ruffles’ thrives in full sun and free-draining soil and is highly tolerant of drought and coastal conditions once established. It’s an excellent choice for pots, small hedges, borders, or cottage garden displays, and responds well to light pruning after each flowering cycle. Highly attractive to pollinators, this plant is both ornamental and functional.
