White Lavender Hedge (Lavandula angustifolia 'Arctic Snow')

White Lavender Hedge Plant Description

White Lavender (Lavandula angustifolia Arctic Snow) is a striking and aromatic evergreen shrub, known for its pure white flowers and classic lavender fragrance. The silvery-green foliage provides year-round interest, while its elegant white blooms appear in summer, creating a calming and fresh appearance in any garden. White Lavender is ideal for low hedging, borders, and sensory gardens, bringing beauty and fragrance to your outdoor spaces.

White Lavender has a moderate growth rate, typically growing 20 to 30 centimetres per year. It usually reaches a height of 60 to 90 centimetres, making it perfect for low hedges or decorative garden edges. This plant thrives in full sun and well-drained, slightly alkaline soils, and is drought-tolerant once established.

Pruning Advice

To keep White Lavender neat and encourage fresh growth, it should be pruned once a year, ideally after flowering in late summer or early autumn. Trim back the spent flower spikes and lightly shape the foliage, but avoid cutting into old wood, as this may reduce regrowth. A light trim in early spring can also promote healthy new shoots and abundant blooms for the next season.

With its distinctive white flowers, lovely fragrance, and pollinator-friendly nature, White Lavender is an excellent choice for creating an elegant, low-maintenance hedge that adds a fresh, calming touch to any garden.

Further Information

Planting distances are largely a matter of preference. For bare root plants, spacing them at 3 plants per meter is sufficient, 5 plants is optimal, and 7 plants in a double staggered row will result in a denser hedge more quickly. Generally, smaller plants should be planted at a higher density. For cell-grown plants, spacing at 4 plants per meter in a single row or ideally 6 plants per meter in a staggered row is recommended.
