At last, a lavender truly adapted to our hot, humid summers and tough winters! Phenomenal® is a groundbreaking hardy cultivar, a breeding breakthrough that every gardener will love.
This American introduction refuses to die back in winter, tolerates extreme heat and humidity without melting out, resists rot, and stands up to other foliar diseases that can make Lavender a challenge to grow. In other words, it conquers most of the stumbling blocks that have held Lavender back in gardens across the country!
On Phenomenal®, the bright blue blooms are held well above the silvery-green foliage, creating a canopy of color breathtaking even in a small planting. Both the flowers and the foliage are strongly fragrant. No wonder this plant was featured in a recent issue of Fine Gardening Magazine! Better Homes and Gardens even named it a "Must Grow Perennial"!
Phenomenal® reaches about 24 to 32 inches high and wide, blooming heavily beginning in midsummer. Both the flowers and the foliage are intensely fragrant -- sweet and long-lasting, ideal for sachets, dream pillows, pot pourri, and of course indoor arrangements.
We heartily recommend Phenomenal® for borders, meadows, mass plantings, and containers in full sunshine and well-drained soil. Zones 5-8.
