Cercis canadensis Lavender Twist = 'Covey'


William Notcutt – Notcutts Garden Centres

So this is a Cercis canadensis Lavender Twist, wonderful new pendulous lavender. Grows in height to about two or three metres, wonderful purple flowers at the start of the season with the apple coloured foliage. Prefers full sun but can cope with a little bit of shade.
