Spanish Lavender (Lavandula stoechas)

Delivers dramatic, ornamental flair with its distinctive “rabbit-ear” flower heads in shades of purple, pink, or white, set against neat mounds of aromatic grey-green foliage. Blooming from late winter through summer, this compact shrub (60cm H x 40cm W) adds long-season interest and pairs beautifully with companions like Orchid Rockrose and Golden Garden Sage. Perfect for feature planting, cottage gardens, and pollinator-friendly beds where bold form and colour shine.

Candicans French Lavender (Lavandula dentata ‘Candicans’ & ‘Candicans × Pure Harmony’)

Brings elegant silver foliage and year-round charm to South African gardens, with silvery-grey, toothed leaves and near-continuous mauve-blue blooms. We also grow the sought-after ‘Candicans × Pure Harmony’—a stunning white-flowering variant prized by landscape designers. Reaching up to 1m tall and thriving in well-drained soil with light frost tolerance, it’s perfect for herb gardens, silver-themed plantings, and bold architectural accents.

Dutch Lavender (Lavandula × allardii)

The hedging specialist with bold, sculptural presence—featuring large, scalloped grey-green leaves and a dense, rounded form that reaches 80cm tall. While it blooms modestly, its striking foliage truly shines when planted en masse, creating lush, structured lines in the garden. Perfect for formal hedging, windbreaks, and architectural garden design where texture and form take centre stage.

Margaret Roberts Lavender (Lavandula X Intermedia Margaret Roberts)

South Africa’s beloved homegrown favourite, Margaret Roberts Lavender, flowers nearly year-round with fragrant, long-stemmed purple spikes and thrives in our climate with minimal care. Its upright, fast-growing habit and drought tolerance make it ideal for fresh bouquets, dried arrangements, and low-maintenance gardens. It forms large, billowing bushes with a soft, airy silhouette that adds grace to any landscape.

Fern Leaf Lavender (Lavandula pubescens)

Also known as Egyptian Lavender, stands out with its soft, feathery foliage and delicate, fern-like texture—offering striking visual contrast in any garden. It produces dark blue flowers on 15cm stems for subtle vertical interest, though unlike most lavenders, it has little to no fragrance and is less frost-tolerant, thriving best in mild or sheltered spots. Perfect for adding textural depth to mixed borders and creating artistic, eye-catching container arrangements.

French Royal Crown Lavender (Lavandula dentata ‘Royal Crown’)

A compact, evergreen performer built for South Africa’s hot, dry gardens—producing purple flower spikes crowned with pale bracts nearly year-round. Its finely toothed, dark green leaves stay lush through summer heat, and it thrives in full sun to light shade, requiring only light pruning after flowering to keep its tidy form. Plant 40cm apart for seamless hedges or borders, and enjoy its versatility in containers, coastal landscapes, formal edging, and urban courtyards.

Angustifolia ( Lavandula angustifolia ) – Fragrance That Never Goes Out of Style

Lavandula angustifolia (English Lavender) is the gold standard for fragrance and versatility. Hardy, compact, and endlessly useful, these varieties are ideal for SA gardens. Explore our collection: Bluespear for vibrant color, Hidcote for deep purple edging, and Munstead for early blooms and classic scent. Perfect for hedging, borders, and drying.

Margaret Roberts Lavender (Lavandula X Intermedia Margaret Roberts)

South Africa’s beloved homegrown favourite, Margaret Roberts Lavender, flowers nearly year-round with fragrant, long-stemmed purple spikes and thrives in our climate with minimal care. Its upright, fast-growing habit and drought tolerance make it ideal for fresh bouquets, dried arrangements, and low-maintenance gardens.

Abrialis ( Lavandula x intermedia 'Abrialis') – The Commercial Lavender Powerhouse

The Lavandula x intermedia 'Abrialis', is a vigorous Lavandin hybrid celebrated for its exceptional essential oil yield and robust, aromatic presence.

It is an outstanding choice for large-scale commercial cultivation, expansive fragrant hedges, and high-yield drying in South African conditions.

Grosso ( Lavandula x intermedia 'Grosso')– The World’s Favourite Fragrant Lavandin

Famous as the most widely grown commercial lavender in the world, Lavandula x intermedia 'Grosso' is a true garden and farm favourite. This vigorous hybrid boasts exceptionally long stems, making it the ultimate choice for fresh bouquets, crafting, and drying. With its striking deep violet-purple flowers, silvery-grey foliage, and rich, heavy fragrance, Grosso delivers high essential oil yields and spectacular visual impact in any South African landscape.
