Lavandula RUFFLES™ ‘Blueberry Ruffles’
Lavandula stoechas
Lavandula stoechas RUFFLES™ ‘Blueberry Ruffles’ is bred for the most commercial characteristics: early flowering, compact habits, and bright flower colors. The Australian breeding program behind it has spent years perfecting the group. The delicious selection of colors available in the Lavandula RUFFLES™ Collection ranges from more traditional lilac colors through unusual duotones.
The aesthetic appeal of the RUFFLES™ Collection does not end there as the chunky bracts atop the flower heads are distinctively rippled along their margins to give the ruffled appearance for which they have been named. Ruffles will continue to spot flower after the main late winter-spring flush is over!
