A French lavender hedge is a stunning and practical way to add aromatic beauty, vivid purple hues, and year-round structure to your New Zealand garden. Known for its finely serrated silvery-green foliage and long flowering season, French lavender (Lavandula dentata) is an ideal shrub for low hedging, pathways, and borders. With its fast-growing habit and resilience to drought, a French lavender hedge transforms both formal and cottage gardens, offering texture and fragrant blooms that attract bees and butterflies.

Lavender 'Hidcote' is a stunning variety that grows as a compact shrub and carries masses of short, violet-purple flower spikes through spring and summer. The foliage is grey-green and complements the darker flowers nicely as it grows to 50 cm tall and the same width. Lavandula 'Hidcote' is commonly used in cottage gardens, included in mixed plantings and borders, planted around outdoor living areas, or maintained in a container. It is also well-suited to mass planting on a bank or using as a groundcover, and in both instances will produce an outstanding display.

Syringa laciniata, commonly known as the Cutleaf Lilac, is grown for its showy flowers from late spring through summer. During this time, purple buds open to reveal clusters of fragrant, single, soft lavender-violet flowers. The foliage comprises dark green, heart-shaped leaves and develops yellow tones in autumn before falling. It grows to about 2.5 m tall and 2 m wide. Syringa laciniata is commonly included in a mixed planting, used as a backdrop for smaller plants, or used as a flowering hedge.
