What flowers best compliment lavender bushes?

I have loads of Lavender bushes in my garden, and each one has different flowers surrounding it.





There are two of them which look very pretty with white spray carnations in between them, and multi pale coloured aquilegias which go on and on if you dead head regularly, and beneath the lavender I have a sprawling campanula which is called Baby Blue eyes, which is double rose shaped miniature variety.





Another two bushes have a climbing mop head pink rose behind , with scabious between at the front, and Black Barlow Aquilegia between.Along with White, and Pink Spray carnations.





The Lavender in the front garden are very large, one has honeysuckle weaving around and through. The others have Red Roses beside and behind, with hollyhocks which will when out are almost black, behind the roses. Underneath the lavender bushes, are beautiful rounded cushions of Oregano with their bright green foliage.

Reply:I have a Mr. Lincoln (deep red) rose bush right behind my lavender plant. It is stunning when all are in bloom.
Reply:I have soapwort planted around the base of my lavender plants, and it's a nice combination. The soapwort has lovely trailing foilage that hides the rather ugly woody bases of the lavender. And the tiny pink soapwort flowers look pretty with the lavender blooms.
Reply:If your just going for scenic attraction, then plant something yellow. The lavender flowers are violet in color, and yellow is violet's color compliment. It will really cause the lavender to stand out! Something short should work, as you don't want to cover up the lavender. Maybe you could try marigolds?
Reply:Lavender will grow with relatively low water use, so the plants you chose should have similar needs. For complemetary foliage I would recommend Artemesia 'Powys Castle'. For color consider any of a number of sages (Salvia) and for evem more color impact I recommend penstemmon 'Fire Cracker".
Reply:Chamomile........they compliment in both scent and the fact that Chamomile is a pale, soft flower, look lovely and smells gorgeous together......

Reply:Depends what you want to achieve.





You will have to plant drought tolerant - plants or flowers that can tolerate similar conditions to the lavender, hot and dry etc.





Pink flowers would look good so would yellow and white in contrast, but you could find all the shades of blue, lilac and purple of different textures and flower shapes interesting too..
Reply:I think rosemary is a good shrub to grow beside lavender.
Reply:White Allysum. Cordinates with and same growing conditions, don't water from spraying.
