Lavandula stoechas ‘Frost Pink’
‘Frost Pink’ Spanish Lavender is a beautiful, fragrant shrub known for its unique pink flower heads topped with delicate “butterfly” bracts. These eye-catching blooms appear from spring through summer, bringing soft color, texture, and fragrance to sunny garden spaces.
Growing 18–24 inches tall and wide, this compact lavender forms a tidy mound of silvery-green foliage that looks attractive year-round in warm climates. The flowers are highly attractive to bees, butterflies, and other pollinators, making it a great addition to pollinator-friendly gardens.
‘Frost Pink’ thrives in full sun and fast-draining soil, especially sandy or rocky conditions. Once established, it is drought tolerant and low maintenance, making it an excellent choice for containers, rock gardens, herb gardens, and water-wise landscapes.
