French Lavender (Lavandula x intermedia) - Quart Container

French Lavender (Lavandula x intermedia) is bred specifically for exceptional heat tolerance and cold hardiness, making it one of the most reliable lavender varieties for a wide range of climates. Silver-green mounds of aromatic foliage support long spires of purple flowers from early summer through frost, and the fragrance is rich and long-lasting.

Material: Main body is a live clump-forming French Lavender plant with fine-textured silver-green aromatic foliage and woody stems. Auxiliary includes nutrient-rich nursery potting soil and a fibrous root system. Accessories include a planting container and care guide for successful establishment.

Size: Mature height 24–30 in, crown spread 24–30 in, forming an attractive, mounded shape.

Color: Flowers: purple; Foliage: silver-green.

Age Group: Adults.

Additional Features: Hardy to USDA Zone 5, extremely heat and drought tolerant, thrives in hot, humid conditions that stress other lavender varieties; prefers full sun with well-drained soil; flowers are excellent for dried arrangements and ornamental displays; aromatic foliage adds fragrance to the garden; ideal for low hedges, border plantings, sensory gardens, or container displays; attracts bees and butterflies, serving as an excellent nectar source for pollinators; pruning after flowering encourages a second bloom cycle for extended color.

Care Instructions: Plant in full sun in very well-drained, lean soil — avoid rich or clay soils. Water deeply once a week during the first growing season; established plants are highly drought tolerant and rarely need supplemental watering. Prune lightly after each bloom flush to encourage reblooming and maintain a compact, tidy shape. Avoid cutting into old woody stems. Mulch lightly around the base in cold-winter areas to protect roots.
