Description
- When we think of lavender plants, we tend to think of purple... But how about something in pink?!
- BeeZee Pink is a fragrant delight, comprising a compact, uniform and highly tactile bush of thyme green foliage, from which vertical, mast-like stems, ending in fat, pastel pink flower spikes, emerge
- This lavender can cope with even severe British winters, and can tolerate temperatures down to -15°C. It's also drought tolerant, too, making it the perfect low maintenance perennial plant
- The terms "lavender" and "pollinator plants" go together like peas in a pod! Improve your garden's pollinator presence with a tastefully placed lavender or two

How To Grow
Excellent pest and disease resistance
Lavender generally experiences very few problems with pests or diseases. It can, however, be prone to rosemary beetles and grey mould. To prevent rosemary beetle infestations, remove any adults and larvae by hand during the latter part of spring. To control grey mould, make sure dead leaves and flowers are quickly removed, and ensure that your lavender plants aren't overcrowded.
Light watering
Lavender only needs to be watered regularly in summer during the first year after planting, or if you're keeping the plant in a container (potted lavender should generally be watered once weekly or fortnightly). Lavender is drought tolerant, therefore once its established, plants in the ground don't need any additional watering except for in severely dry conditions. A sign that your lavender needs watering is if the leaves begin to wilt and droop. Yellowing leaves and drooping are both indications that your lavender has been overwatered.
Full sun
Lavender requires a minimum of 6 hours of direct sunlight per day to grow well, but performs its very best when it receives at least 8 hours of direct sunlight per day.
Free draining soil
This plant will grow best in sandy, slightly alkaline soil that has good drainage. You can improve drainage by adding perlite or coarse sand to your soil. Avoid clay soil or soil which too acidic.
No feeding needed
Lavender prefers soil that's poor in nutrients or only moderately fertile, so feeding isn't generally required.

Best plants you will ever get online
I have ordered plants from them twice this year. They arrived well packaged, on time and looked strong and healthy. I feel the staff from Roots plants deal with their plants and customers with passion and care. I can’t wait to order again, price is good as well.

John Harris
Satisfied customer
Unlike other online sellers, this company are well ahead in the quality stakes. My plant arrived promptly as per their promise and the plant was much more established and healthy than I had expected. It’s the second time I have ordered from them and I have faith in their promise. Excellent service.
