- Highly fragrant, evergreen lavender with gray-green foliage and abundant purple flower spikes
- Waterwise performer for hot, dry borders, slopes, and Mediterranean-style gardens
- Versatile in mass plantings, low hedges, edging, and large containers
- Summer blooms are ideal for cutting and drying—perfect for sachets and aromatic crafts
Provence Lavender (Lavandula x intermedia ‘Provence’) is a classic, highly fragrant evergreen lavender prized for its gray-green foliage and abundant purple flower spikes that perfume sunny gardens all summer. This rugged, waterwise plant thrives in lean, well-drained soils and excels where conditions are hot and dry—making it a standout for Mediterranean-style landscapes, xeriscapes, slopes, and sunny borders. Its tidy, mounded form is excellent for edging herb gardens or creating low hedges, and it’s especially effective when planted in sweeping drifts for a soft, fragrant “lavender field” effect. Harvest the blooms for fresh bouquets or dry them for sachets to enjoy the signature scent long after the season ends.
