If waiting for lavender to bloom tests your patience, Summer Serenade Lavender is your perfect match. One of the earliest English lavenders to show color each year, this compact beauty quickly forms a tidy, well-rounded mound topped with spikes of true lavender-purple flowers. Even better, it blooms without vernalization, packing on flowers early and continuing its performance as summer unfolds.
The soft, silvery foliage provides a refined backdrop for the vibrant blooms and keeps the plant looking attractive even between flowering cycles. Designed with landscape performance in mind, Summer Serenade Lavender fills the front of sunny borders beautifully where its fragrance can be enjoyed up close. A light trim encourages continued flowering, extending the display well into late summer.
Tough, drought tolerant, and delightfully aromatic, this Proven Winners® perennial thrives with minimal fuss. Bees and butterflies flock to the nectar-rich flowers, while deer and rabbits tend to pass it by. Whether you're planting for pollinators, fragrance, or timeless Mediterranean charm, Summer Serenade Lavender delivers a harmonious blend of beauty and reliability.

Interesting Notes About SUMMER SERENADE LAVENDER
- Built for Borders: Many compact lavenders are bred mainly for containers. This variety was selected specifically to bulk up evenly in the landscape without splitting or thinning.
- Lavender That Doesn't Wait for Winter: Most English lavenders need a cold period to trigger blooms. 'Summer Serenade' skips that requirement, flowering early even in regions with mild winters.
- True English Lavender Genetics: As a Lavandula angustifolia, it produces classic lavender oil chemistry—one reason its fragrance is noticeably sweeter and softer than hybrid types.
- Flowers That Multiply With a HaircutA quick shear after the first flush doesn't just tidy the plant—it actually signals the plant to reload and push fresh bloom spikes.
- Mediterranean Survival StrategyThe silvery foliage reflects sunlight and reduces moisture loss, a natural adaptation that explains its heat tolerance and low water needs.
