Phenomenal Lavender is a standout perennial prized for its silvery foliage, intensely fragrant purple flower spikes, and exceptional heat and humidity tolerance. Blooming from mid to late summer, this hardy lavender creates a soft cloud of color that attracts bees, butterflies, and other pollinators while adding classic cottage garden charm to the landscape. Its upright, mounded habit makes it perfect for borders, mass plantings, herb gardens, and decorative containers.
Unlike many traditional lavenders, ‘Phenomenal’ performs beautifully in humid climates and is highly resistant to root rot, making it an excellent choice for Southern gardens. The fragrant blooms are also ideal for cutting and drying for crafts, bouquets, and sachets.
