Summary
Fragrant, resilient, and beautifully structured—lavender that thrives where others struggle.
Lavandula × intermedia ‘Phenomenal’ is widely recognized for its ability to tolerate both summer humidity and winter cold. Its silvery foliage forms a compact, rounded mound that provides texture even when not in bloom.
In mid to late summer, long stems carry violet-blue flower spikes that are strongly fragrant and attractive to pollinators. The blooms dry well for sachets and arrangements, while the foliage maintains a tidy, architectural presence in sunny landscapes.
This variety performs especially well in sharply drained soils and is a dependable choice for gardeners seeking structure, fragrance, and seasonal color in one plant.
Care
‘Phenomenal’ Lavender Care
Plant in Full Sun for best flowering and compact growth.
Provide sharply drained soil. Sandy or gravelly soils are ideal. Avoid consistently wet or heavy clay soils.
Water regularly during the first growing season to establish roots. Once established, allow soil to dry between waterings.
If desired, apply a light feeding of slow release fertilizer in early spring. Excess fertility can reduce flowering.
Prune lightly in early spring as new growth begins, trimming back about one-third of the plant to maintain shape and encourage fresh blooms.
Container Growing: Use a container with excellent drainage and a gritty potting mix. Container-grown plants require more frequent watering than those planted in the ground. Plants hardy in the ground may require winter protection when grown in containers in colder zones.
