Essence Purple English Lavender (Lavandula angustifolia 'Essence Purple')

Essence Purple English Lavender, Lavandula angustifolia 'Essence Purple', is a compact English lavender selected for its uniform habit, strong purple flower spikes, and fragrant gray green foliage. Plants form a tight, rounded mound that stays neat without heavy pruning, then cover themselves in dense flower wands that appear in a concentrated flush, creating a bold wave of color along paths, at the front of borders, and in containers. With its reliable blooming, classic lavender scent, and tidy form, Essence Purple English Lavender offers a clean, refined focal point wherever you need a low, sun loving accent.

Distinctive Features

Essence Purple English Lavender typically grows about 12 to 18 inches tall and 14 to 20 inches wide, forming a naturally compact, dome shaped clump that holds its shape well over time. Flower spikes are thick and evenly distributed across the plant, carrying rich purple florets that give a strong, saturated color effect when in bloom. Narrow, gray green leaves provide fine texture and a soft, silvery cast that remains attractive long after the flowers have finished, so the plant continues to function as a foliage accent. The combination of uniform habit, intense flower color, and strong fragrance makes this variety especially useful for edging, low hedging, and high visibility containers.

Growing Conditions

  • Light: Prefers full sun with at least 6 hours of direct light daily for best flowering, compact growth, and strong fragrance.
  • Soil: Thrives in well drained, lean to average soils; avoid heavy, wet ground and favor sandy or gravelly conditions that keep roots on the dry side.
  • Water: Water regularly after planting to establish; once rooted in, water deeply but infrequently, allowing the top of the soil to dry between waterings.
  • Hardiness: Well suited to many temperate regions where English lavender is grown outdoors, especially when provided with sharp drainage in winter.
  • Size: Forms a compact mound about 12 to 18 inches tall and 14 to 20 inches wide at maturity, depending on climate and care.
  • Growth Rate: Moderate grower that fills in steadily without quickly outgrowing containers or narrow border spaces.

Ideal Uses

  • Edging and Low Hedges: Plant in a row along walks, drives, or bed edges to create a low, fragrant ribbon of gray green foliage and purple bloom.
  • Containers and Patio Pots: Excellent in clay pots, troughs, and mixed planters where the compact mound and upright flower spikes add height, scent, and color.
  • Front of Border Accent: Ideal for the front of sunny borders where its neat shape and rich flowers form a dependable visual anchor.
  • Herb and Scent Gardens: Perfect near seating areas, entries, and paths so aromatic foliage and blooms can be brushed and enjoyed up close.
  • Cottage and Mediterranean Gardens: Mix with roses, salvias, grasses, and sun loving perennials for classic cottage combinations, or pair with stone and gravel for a Mediterranean feel.

Low Maintenance Care

  • Watering: After establishment, water when the top inch of soil is dry; avoid constant moisture or soggy conditions that can lead to root problems.
  • Pruning: Shear lightly after the main flush of bloom to remove spent spikes and maintain a dense mound; avoid cutting back into old, woody stems with no leaves.
  • Fertilizing: Requires only light feeding; in spring, apply a small amount of balanced, slow release fertilizer if soil is very lean, since excessive nutrients can cause soft, floppy growth.
  • Mulching: Use a thin layer of gravel or coarse mulch around the base to improve drainage and keep foliage off wet soil, avoiding heavy organic mulches against the stems.
  • Seasonal Care: In colder climates, provide excellent drainage and a sunny, sheltered spot; in late winter or early spring, tidy lightly to remove any winter damage and keep the plant compact.

Why Choose Essence Purple English Lavender?

  • Uniform, Compact Habit: Naturally rounded form stays neat and even, making it ideal for edging and low hedges.
  • Rich Purple Flower Spikes: Dense, deep purple blooms provide strong color impact and classic English lavender style.
  • Aromatic Foliage: Fragrant gray green leaves add soothing scent and soft texture to paths, patios, and outdoor living areas.
  • Sun and Heat Tolerant: Performs well in hot, bright exposures when planted in well drained soil or raised beds.
  • Versatile Design Use: Works in mixed borders, herb and cutting gardens, white and purple themed plantings, or as a container focal point wherever you want reliable lavender color, fragrance, and a tidy focal point.

With its compact, uniform habit, rich purple flower spikes, and fragrant gray green foliage, Essence Purple English Lavender is an excellent choice for adding classic lavender beauty, scent, and a dependable focal point to sunny borders, pathways, and containers.

Beautiful sturdy, cozy chair, BUT…..
Color: White, Color: White
Updated review. I was so excited to get this chair that I jumped the gun and wrote the review prior to spending more time seated. I only have one issue, which is the back bottom of the seat cushion. That’s a big deal. It appears so thick, fluffy and inviting, however, when I sat in it for a couple of hours it completely went flat in the back feeling like I was sitting on a board. I’m 5’4” 180 lbs, which means my feet don’t touch the floor so adding a cushion will elevate me a little more. I’m OK with that but it’s going to ruin aesthetic of the chair which is which is not ok. I do love the idea of this chair. It’s design and the color. I wish the seat cushion had a zipper, which would eliminate my issue. I’d say if you’re someone who has to spend a lot of hours in this chair, you probably won’t like it. I do like the reclining back and the foot rest. It is comfortable to lay back but that doesn’t change the issue in the back bottom of the seat cushion. I absolutely love this chair, I didn’t want to get up. It’s beautiful and cozy. Assembly was easy as I’ve assembled chairs before. I changed the wheels to a double roller blade easy on hard wood floors. I also scotch guarded the entire chair. This chair is sturdy and well made.

just get it and stop second guessing
Color: White, Color: White
I reallllly love this chair. I almost talked myself out of it because of some of the bad reviews here and there but i’m glad i listened to a majority of the good reviews, because this chair is perfect. shipping: it was super fast. it came 5 days earlier than expected. I got it on a Monday when it said it’d be here on Friday packaging: double boxed and bubble wrapped. Didn’t find any dings or scratches on anything. all parts were there including instructions assembly: my boyfriend put it together in 40 minutes. We didn’t have any issues zipping up the back cover like other reviews said and he said it was easy instructions to follow, and easy to put together. size and comfort: it’s bigger than the pictures let on! I’m 5’3 135lbs and feel like I’m sitting on a giant cloud. The comfort is 10/10. I just had a chair with basicslly zero butt cushion which i cannot have while working from home 8+ hrs a day in a chair. Comfort was the most important for me and I finally can’t feel the flat seat under me. I can’t express how comfy it is. Functions: can move the arm rests up and down. adjust the back to tilt all the way back to a sleeping position or fully upright which i didn’t even realize was a function! The only thing with the armrests; if you’re wanting your pet on it (like advertised) when the arm rests is put down there is a big gap that isn’t comfortable for animals (as pictured) so I have to put a blanket or pillow there for my small dog to lay comfortably. I’m obsessed with the fact I can sit cross legged, normally, laying down, sprawled up, or legs up. I have room to sit however I want, and the foot rests helps a ton with feeling even more comfortable. Overall, I’d get this chair 10x over. Not only do I work from home and spend hours in a chair, but I spend additional time playing video games so a good quality chair is very important to me. This has began to help fix my posture and back and neck issues. Get it!!!

If You Sit Weird Like Me… Just Buy This Chair
Color: Galaxy Black
I work from home and spend a lot of time sitting for hobbies like Legos, PC games, and crafts—so a comfortable chair is a must. I LOVE this chair so far. I’ve always struggled to get comfortable in traditional office chairs, and the ability to move around is really important to me. With this one, I can easily cross my legs, use the footrest to stretch out with my knees bent, or just sit normally. I’m 5’4”, so my feet don’t quite touch the ground, but that doesn’t bother me since I’m constantly switching positions anyway. I’ll probably add a small pillow for extra back support and maybe fold a blanket for a bit more seat cushioning. It’s comfortable overall, but after long periods of sitting, you might start to feel it. The black sparkle version is MUCH cuter in person, and I’m so glad I went with it. A lot of reviews say, “don’t think about it, just get it”—and honestly, they’re right. I debated for a couple weeks before buying, and I have zero regrets. Assembly was easier than I expected. I tend to get frustrated putting things together, but this was pretty painless. One tip: check inside the cushioned back piece for the extra headrest part—you’ll need it to attach to the hard back before inserting it into the cushion. Once I figured that out, the rest was simple. The chair is a bit larger than a standard office chair and can feel a little bulky depending on your desk setup, but I actually like the extra space since I move around a lot while sitting. It feels sturdy and well-made. It’s also slightly warmer than a mesh chair, which I personally love because I’m always cold. I am just happy to find a chair that feels comfortable like a recliner and movable like an office chair.

Great chair
Color: Pink
I love this chair! I use it for streaming and working on making jewelry! It’s very comfortable and I love that I can sit different ways in it! I can stream longer than I could in other computer chairs I’ve had! I definitely recommend this if you have to sit for a long time but like to sit in different positions! The instructions were a bit confusing but I did figure it out! I have had to spot clean it a few times because of kids and pets but the material has held up! The back is very comfortable and supportive! I like that I can adjust it! Great chair for the price! It’s held up well and I like that you can adjust the back!

Good office chair for the money
Color: White
It is a good quality chair that is comfortable and aesthetically pleasing. The arms aren't necessarily big enough to hold our cat - but that's because he's fairly large by cat standards. The arm rests moving is definitely nice and provides lots of opportunities to 'setup the chair' in a way that works best for you. The instructions were relatively easy to follow (take your time and think it through to make sure you have everything 'aligned right' at first) and the chair is sturdy and holding up well.
