Transform your landscape with the award-winning, ultra-resilient Phenomenal Lavender (Lavandula x intermedia ‘Phenomenal®’), the gold standard in modern lavender hybrids. Each order includes premium 72-cell plugs packed with a robust, well-established root system — the perfect choice for gardeners and landscapers who demand unwavering performance, exceptional disease resistance, and massive blooms in USDA Hardiness Zones 4-9.

Phenomenal Lavender earned its name for good reason: it delivers an abundance of long, rich violet-blue flower wands that rise high above dense, silvery-green foliage from early summer through late summer — often with a impressive second flush in fall. Its intense, classic lavender fragrance fills the air while drawing waves of bees, butterflies, and beneficial pollinators. Widely regarded as one of the most humidity-tolerant and winter-hardy English lavenders available, Phenomenal stands up to heat, humidity, cold, and even poor soil conditions where other lavenders fail.

Uniform, mounded habit reaches 24-32" tall and wide, making it ideal as a low hedge, border planting, mass landscape display, or large container specimen. Superior resistance to leaf spot and root rot means less worry and more enjoyment year after year.

Shipping Information

Your Phenomenal Lavender plant is shipped directly to you in April, ensuring it arrives fresh and ready for spring planting. Each plug is carefully packaged to maintain plant health during transit. You’ll receive your plant in prime condition, ready to transform your garden.

Planting & Care Instructions

• • Planting: Transplant the plug into dry, well-drained soil with full sun exposure. Plant 24" to 36" apart. Dig a hole as deep as the root ball and twice as wide, and hill soil into a raised mound to ensure water drains away from roots.

  • Watering: Water moderately until established, then water sparingly, allowing soil to dry completely between waterings to satisfy lavender’s love for dry conditions.

  • Soil: Thrives in sandy or loamy soil with a pH of 6.5-7.5. Avoid heavy clay or waterlogged areas.

  • Pruning: Trim after flowering to maintain shape and encourage new growth.

  • Winter Care: In colder climates (Zone 5), mulch around the base with gravel to protect roots and maintain dry conditions.
