General: Big Time Blue' puts other English Lavenders to shame: not only does it bloom much earlier than all of its relatives, but these blooms are also some of the largest, growing up to 4 inches long on compact foliage. Needs well-drained soil and prefers to be kept on the dry side. Tolerant of heat, humidity, and drought.

Ornamental Uses: Very early to flower, with large, purplish blue blossoms on fat spikes. Vigorous, gray-green foliage.
