Description

Lavender ‘Fairy Wings Purple’ is a compact, evergreen variety of French lavender that showcases striking purple bracts above its fragrant flowers, enhancing the aesthetic appeal and ecological value of any sunny garden. Its mounded growth habit features sturdy, upright stems that contribute to its overall structure.

The plant boasts narrow, aromatic foliage with a silvery-grey hue, which complements the deep purple flower spikes adorned with distinctive petal-like bracts, often referred to as “fairy wings.” These blooms emerge from late spring through summer, releasing a strong fragrance characteristic of Spanish lavenders. 

Thriving in full sun and well-drained soils—such as sand, chalk, loam, or light clay—this lavender is fully hardy in the UK, tolerating temperatures as low as -20?°C. Once established, it requires moderate watering and is drought-tolerant, though care should be taken to prevent waterlogging. Additionally, it attracts a variety of pollinators, including bees and butterflies, making it a valuable addition to any garden. Regular maintenance involves pruning spent flower stems post-bloom and trimming foliage in spring to promote healthy growth and maintain its shape. The plant typically reaches a height and spread of 50 cm (20 in).

How to Grow
Grow French lavender plants on free draining soil in full sun. Lavenders dislike wet ground, particularly during winter. Improve heavy soil conditions by adding coarse grit or sharp sand prior to planting.When growing French lavender in large patio containers, use a well drained soil based compost. After planting, prune lavender plants to encourage bushy growth.

For more information and guidance check out our Gardening Guides.

More Info
Water regularly throughout summer until lavender plants are fully established. Once established, they are reasonably drought tolerant. Immediately after flowering, prune English lavender back to within 2cm (1") of the previous year's growth to maintain a compact, well shaped plant. Culinary idea: Make delicious lavender sugar or lavender and mint jelly from the freshly picked flowers.
