Clump forming variety with aromatic, grey-green, evergreen foliage and highly scented spikes of pure white flowers all summer which are held above the foliage and are very attractive to bees and other nectar seeking insects. The foliage gives off a wonderful fragrance when brushed against. Plant in a sunny position with well drained soil. The dried leaves and flowers of Lavenders are useful in pot-pourri. The flower heads should be cut before they are fully open.
We recommend planting lavender in spring. We do not normally send lavender plants in winter. UK grown plants.

Pot Grown Plants
These are normally sold in small 9cm wide pots, unless a different pot size is shown (where the pot size is shown in litres). Pot grown plants can be planted at any time of the year.
Availability
Pot Grown are generally available all year.
If a plant is currently out of stock because it is out of season (for example, bare rooted plants in summer) or we have sold out but we are expecting more to be available you can pre-order the plant. We only charge credit/debit cards when an order is despatched, not when an order is placed.
Planting Distances for planting as a Hedge
We recommend planting Lavender, White in a single row between 30cm/12ins apart and 38cm/15ins apart:
Planting closer will mean the plants will grow together and form a hedge quicker, but requires more plants.
To calculate the number of plants needed for a length of hedging, click on Planting Distance Calculator above.
Planting Guide & RootGrow
We recommend planting with RootGrow. The recommended amount for RootGrow for an order will be shown in your shopping basket.
We will send out a planting guide with your order, you also can find a guide to planting here.
Pruning
Hedging - As a general rule, plants grown for hedging need pruning to encourage side branching. Usually the harder a plant is pruned the bushier it will be. If they are not pruned there is a danger that the hedges will be thin and bare at the base and that the tips of the plants will die back. If the plant is naturally bushy, less or sometimes no pruning will be needed to achieve a dense hedge.
Lavender, White: Cut back by about one third the leading and long side shoots and repeat during the second winter.
