Description
A next generation hybrid, from mid summer to early fall Sensational Lavender features abundant spikes of much larger and thicker flowers on sturdier stems that are clothed in silver-grey foliage, which has a sweet lavender floral aroma with low camphor, making it a superb choice for culinary uses, drying, and aromatherapy. Unlike many lavenders, this one grows very dense and has shown exceptional heat and humidity tolerance as far south as USDA Zone 9b. Excellent for pots, landscape borders and garden beds.
Landscape & Garden Uses
Growing 18 inches tall with blooms to 24 inches and 24 to 30 inches wide, Sensational Lavender is ideal for use as an accent, in groupings or mass plantings, or as a low hedge in landscape and perennial borders and herb gardens. Mass plantings are truly breathtaking. It has also done well for us in container gardens, which can be overwintered indoors above Zone 5a. A fine selection for herb gardens, perennial gardens, purple theme gardens, cottage gardens, and rock and fragrance gardens.
Suggested Spacing: 18 to 24 inches apart for mass plantings or solid borders; 5 feet apart for space between plants
How To Measure Total Square Feet Of A Planting Area
How Many Plants Needed To Cover A Planting Area?
Note: For our customers who live and garden north of USDA Plant Hardiness Zone 5a, where this Lavender variety is not winter hardy, you’ll be happy to know it can be grown in containers that can be brought indoors during winter and placed back outside when temperatures warm up in spring.
Growing Preferences
Lavender is easy to grow in a moist to somewhat dry well-drained soil of average to low fertility and plenty of sun. Constantly soggy soil or standing water is problematic. If desired, the plant can be cut back by one-third its height after flowering to maintain a fuller plant. For example, if your plant is 30 inches tall you can cut it back to 20 inches tall.

Doing well on the sunny West side of a high ocean front dune. Tolerated periods of heat and drought well.——————————————We are so glad you are pleased and we hope you enjoy your purchase for years to come! Thanks for the awesome review! 🙂 Beth Steele | WBG
I order plants from Wilson Bros. Gardens often, and have always had a positive experience. The plants are well-protected for shipping, arrive in a timely manner, and the soil is still damp when I open the package. It is reassuring when a company follows through on their promises and exceeds the expectations of the consumer. I look forward to enjoying these lavender plants and sharing their blooms with my mom! Thank you for providing me with beautiful, healthy plants every time I place an order.—————————————————————-You’re very welcome! Thanks for the kind words and awesome review!
