Mermaid Lavender' is distinguished by its finely textured, semi - evergreen foliage that forms compact, low mounds. The leaves are a cool and soothing shade of silvery-green, providing a lovely backdrop for the delicate flowers. The true star of 'Mermaid Lavender' is its profusion of dainty, pure lavender-purple flowers that appear in early to mid-spring. These blooms create a stunning contrast against the silver-green foliage and blanket the plant in a carpet of colour.
