Lavender - Pink Queen

Common Name: Lavender 'Pink Queen'

Description:
Lavandula angustifolia 'Pink Queen' is a beautiful and highly fragrant English lavender variety, known for its delicate yet striking pink flowers that stand out against its aromatic grey-green foliage. Blooming from late spring through summer, this lavender attracts bees, butterflies, and other pollinators, making it an excellent choice for wildlife-friendly gardens. It thrives in full sun and well-drained soil, performing well in Melbourne’s climate. Drought-tolerant once established, 'Pink Queen' is perfect for garden borders, cottage gardens, pots, and low hedging. Its strongly scented flowers are ideal for cut or dried arrangements, potpourri, and essential oil extraction. Low-maintenance and long-lived, this lavender is a must-have for any garden.
