Platt Hill Nursery proudly offers the Phenomenal Lavender, a French Hybrid Lavender cultivar noted for its outstanding cold hardiness and ability to grow in climates with extreme heat and humidity. This plant is a medium-sized grower with lovely gray-green foliage and blooms with purple flowers on tall stems in mid-summer. Discovered by a commercial herb grower in Pennsylvania, this cultivar has been grown successfully across much of the country, where it is more tolerant of moisture and high humidity. ‘Phenomenal’ Lavender is a zone more cold-hardy than most other hybrid lavenders and is reliably hardy in Chicago. Drought tolerant once established. Prune after flowering and before the end of September to keep compact.
