Is lavender (lavandula angustifolia var. rosea) hardy in zone 6b?

Is lavender (lavandula angustifolia var. rosea) hardy in zone 6b?
by

1 Answer

Answer :

answer:Yes. Here where there are pockets of zone 5 (sheltered and sunny) it winters over.. On my windy hill that gets the brunt of the gales from the NW and is considered zone 4b, it does not. I substitue catmint (nepeta) instead. You can also dig them up in the fall before the first heavy frost. You can have a bed entirely of the different species of lavender. Lucky you.
