Blushing Lavender is an exclusive 2023 Jackson & Perkins grandiflora introduction, offering refined color, elegant form, and a naturally graceful garden presence. Flowering continuously from late spring through mid fall, this variety produces 4- to 5-inch spiraled double blooms held singly or in small clusters. Each flower opens with 35 to 50 lavender petals kissed with a soft pink blush, creating a romantic, watercolor-like effect. Moderately fragranced with a sweet, fruity scent and carried on medium to somewhat short yet sturdy stems, these blooms make lovely cuts for bringing their gentle color and fragrance indoors.
Forming a medium-sized shrub with an upright, slightly spreading habit, Blushing Lavender offers strong performance and good disease resistance throughout the season. It transitions seamlessly between formal and casual garden settingsideal for single plantings, mixed perennial beds, or as a refined focal point in a rose border. Pair it with companions such as catmint, Russian sage, lavender, or pale pink and white perennials to enhance its soft hues and extend the garden's visual rhythm.
Blushing Lavender thrives in full sun and well-drained soil. Regular watering during establishment and seasonal feeding help support its steady flushes of bloom. Light pruning in early springremoving dead or crossing canes and shaping as neededencourages vigorous new growth and strong flowering. With its long season of spiraled blossoms, reliable health, and luminous lavender coloring, this grandiflora brings elegance and gentle fragrance to gardens of all styles.
