Why Choose Large Lavender Plants?

Large lavender varieties stand out for their size, structure, and performance in the garden. They provide lush, evergreen foliage year-round and produce generous spikes of fragrant flowers from late spring into early summer and sometimes even beyond. Their larger stature makes them excellent for hedging, creating privacy, or anchoring a planting scheme. Large lavender plants are also low-maintenance, drought-tolerant once established, and deer-resistant—a true asset for Kiwi gardens.

How to Use Large Lavender Plants in Your Garden

Large lavender plants bring both beauty and utility to your garden. Plant them as rows along paths for a sensory experience, or use them to define spaces within your landscape. Their dense foliage makes them excellent for informal hedges, privacy screens, or as companion plants with roses and other sun-lovers. The flowers also attract bees and butterflies, supporting local wildlife and pollination.

For maximum impact, position your lavender in full sun and well-drained soil. Prune lightly after flowering to maintain their shape and promote repeat blooms. With a little care, large lavender plants will thrive for years, rewarding you with fragrance and colour season after season.
