There are lots of Lavenders out there but this one will stand out from the crowd with its long, silver-gray foliage that looks more robust than other types. This foliage lines up along upright, densely held stems and forms a large, fragrant, rounded bush that carries sweet scented, lavender colored flower spikes on branch tips from mid-June through mid-August. Grosso is a profuse bloomer and a strong, dependable landscape performer providing that the location where its planted is extremely well-drained and devoid of standing water, especially in the winter months. Plant it in groups and be sure to cut and dry plenty since the foliage and flowers will retain their great aroma in arrangements and potpourris! Foliage and flowers will add flavor to candy or ice cream while foliage is used widely in teas, oils, sachets, perfumes, and potpourris.
