The soft, romantic beauty of Double Lavender Freesia, coupled with its intoxicating scent, reminds us why we love freesia! Diminutive and dainty, each stem carries multiple lush, ruffled blooms in shades of pale lilac to violet. Its famous peppery sweet fragrance is synonymous with spring as we bring these blooms indoors during the cool, spring season. Compact and graceful, add Double Lavender Freesia to garden beds, borders, and containers.
