Modern breeding and selection processes have taken the crop to a new level. Lavender Blue Spear is a modern compact,  early blooming variety of English Lavender, which is truly stunning. It has compact vibrant blue-purple flowers, which come from a bushy plant with neat growth habit.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIts growing height is about 10 -12 inches (25-30cm) with a lateral spread of about 25 cm. The foliage is silver green, with narrow leaves. The plant is extremely oleiferous, that is it has a high content of lavender oil in its leaves. This is very evident the moment the foliage is brushed and felt.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFlowering time is from summer through to late summer. One of the other key features of this variety is that it has an extended flowering period when compared to other lavenders. You should prune the plant after flowering to maintain a bushy habit. Do not over feed it, too much nitrogen will supress flowering. It is essential to keep good air circulation around the plant to ensure it is healthy, this will minimise fungal diseases.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePlanting should be in a free draining soil, which is slightly alkaline or neutral. Once established, Blue Spear is drought tolerant, and enjoys full exposure to sunlight.\u003cbr\u003eBlue Spear is a bee magnet and is attractive to all the other pollinators.
