‘Abrialii’ is a reliable lavandin grown for its long stems, deep violet color, and strong fragrance. Dense, tapered flower spikes rise well above the foliage, making this variety well suited for cutting, drying, and large-scale harvesting.

The dark violet-green calyces support rich violet corollas that hold their color well in both fresh and dried use. Plants are vigorous and productive, filling space evenly without becoming unruly. Under good growing conditions, ‘Abrialii’ often produces a fall rebloom, allowing for extended harvest.

Often compared to ‘Grosso,’ this variety performs at a similar level while offering a slightly different form and tone. It does well in full sun and well-drained soil and remains drought tolerant once established.

A solid choice for growers who want consistent yields, strong fragrance, and dependable performance.
