Buy Dutch Lavender Plants – UK Grown & Delivered
Our Dutch lavender plants are large-growing and powerfully aromatic, ideally suited to informal hedging and edging, thanks to their vigour and uniform growth. They grow larger than English varieties and produce long-stemmed flowers that are ideal for pot-pourri, drying, candles and insect repellents.
Dutch lavender, or Lavandula × intermedia, is a natural hybrid of English and Portuguese lavender, combining excellent hardiness with a powerful, camphor-rich fragrance.

Choosing the Right Dutch Lavender Plant
Choosing a variety
Dutch lavender is hardy, vigorous and flowers around 2–3 weeks later than English lavender.
- Grosso – the best choice for oil and drying; pale flowers with very high scent
- Phenomenal – deep purple flowers and excellent garden performance
- Vera – the tallest growing, making it the best for hedging; requires reliable annual pruning
- Edelweiss – best for fragrance in the garden
Dutch lavenders are the best choice for oils, vigorous garden scent and taller hedging. English Lavender offers sweeter and more soothing tones suitable for cooking and aromatherapy, while French lavender is prized for its striking flowers.
For detailed advice on planting, care, and choosing the best variety for your garden, see our lavender growing guides.
