Arctic Snow Lavender — The Quiet One in the Row

Most people picture lavender as purple. That is fair enough, and if you lined up ten gardeners and asked them to name a lavender colour, nine would say purple and one would say blue. Arctic Snow is the variety that nobody expects. The flowers are a clean, true white, held on short neat spikes above compact silver-green foliage, and the effect in a border or along a path is quite different from anything a purple lavender can do. Where Hidcote gives you drama and a strong colour statement, Arctic Snow gives you light. It lifts the plants around it, makes a shaded corner feel less heavy, and works in colour schemes where purple would fight with the neighbours.

Arctic Snow is one of the more compact English lavenders, topping out at about 50cm, and it grows slowly enough that it stays tidy without much intervention. That slowness is worth mentioning honestly. A row of P9 Arctic Snow plants will take longer to knit together than a row of Hidcote or Munstead planted at the same time. By the second summer you will have individual mounds touching at the shoulders; by the third, a proper hedge. The scent is sweet and recognisably lavender, though lighter than the purple varieties. On a still July evening you catch it walking past. On a windy day in March, not so much.

White Lavender and the Mixed Hedge

Arctic Snow earns a particular place in the Ashridge range as one third of our mixed English lavender hedge pack, alongside Hidcote and Loddon Pink. The idea is simple: plant them alternating along a path or border edge and you get a hedge in three colours from the same species, all flowering at roughly the same time, all the same height, all needing the same care. The white sits between the deep purple of Hidcote and the pale pink of Loddon Pink and stops them clashing. It is the peacekeeper. You could do the same thing with separate orders of each variety, of course, but the pack takes the arithmetic out of it and gives you equal numbers of each.

White lavender has a slightly different audience from the purple kinds. It turns up in wedding gardens, white borders, moon gardens (the sort of planting designed to look good at dusk), and alongside pale roses where a line of purple would be too heavy. If you already have a lot of purple in a border and want to add lavender without adding more of the same colour, Arctic Snow solves the problem without changing the mood.

Planting Companions

The obvious partner is Hidcote. A line of alternating white and deep purple is one of those combinations that looks like you spent a long time planning it, when in fact it more or less designs itself. Rosemary planted behind gives you a taller evergreen backdrop and extends the Mediterranean feel through the winter months. Catmint, white hardy geraniums and Stachys byzantina (lamb's ears) all sit well alongside Arctic Snow at the front of a sunny border. For a taller white lavender further back, Edelweiss reaches about 75cm and the two whites at different heights make a surprisingly effective layered planting.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is Arctic Snow lavender good for cooking?

In terms of taste, it is as good as any other English lavender. All Lavandula angustifolia varieties have a sweet, low-camphor flavour that works in baking and drinks. The white flowers look rather elegant scattered over a cake or frozen into ice cubes, so if anything it has a slight visual advantage over purple varieties in the kitchen. Munstead is usually cited as the best culinary lavender, but the difference in flavour is marginal.

How far apart should I plant Arctic Snow for a hedge?

Three per metre, so about 33cm apart. Because Arctic Snow is a slower grower than some English lavenders, expect the hedge to fill in fully by the third summer with P9 plants. With 2L plants you will be most of the way there by the end of the second year. Always plant into warm soil, not cold wet ground in early spring.

Can I grow Arctic Snow in a pot?

Yes, and its compact size makes it one of the better lavenders for containers. A pot 25cm across is fine. Use a free-draining compost with added grit or perlite, and do not let it sit in a saucer of water. Our lavender growing guide covers container growing in more detail.

Does Arctic Snow come in the mixed hedge pack?

Yes. It is one of three varieties in our mixed English lavender hedge pack, together with Hidcote and Loddon Pink. The pack gives you equal numbers of each in P9 pots, ready to plant alternating along a path or border. It is our cheapest way to buy lavender if you want a multi-coloured hedge without ordering three separate varieties.

When should I prune Arctic Snow?

After flowering, usually late August or early September. Take off the spent flower spikes and trim about a third of the current season's green growth. Do not cut into old bare wood. A light shape-up in April is fine but the late-summer prune is the one that matters. There is a short video in our pruning guide that shows the technique.

Waste of Money
Color: Dark Gray, Size: 3 Panel "L"
Don't think you are getting a professional divider. These things are pressed cardboard, they rattle and they have no sound reduction. I would return if it wasn't such a pain to dis assemble and repackage. We bought three for our office, but the other two will immediately be returned on Monday.....WASTE of time and money.

Heavy and bit of a pain to put together
Color: Dark Gray, Size: 2 Panel "I"
This unit is better for an industrial or business setting. It's rather cumbersome and awkward to assemble. Needs to be kept stationary after putting it together, was not easy to move around once it was up.

Highly Customizable Modular Wall System
Color: Dark Gray, Size: 2 Panel "I"
The VIVO Modular Wall System is sturdy and easy to assemble. The semi-lightweight panels slide in and out of the modular frame. The panels are made of very strong and thick panels that provide a simple, good-looking room barrier. The dark grey tone of the privacy panels looks good with a multitude of interior decors. This product is suitable for commercial applications, but it can also be used for home use. I tested this product and installed it in my computer lab to create a private computer corner. I work better by having a cubicle area that is free from distractions. The VIVO modular wall system effectively gives me "blinders" so that the rest of my work area is not a distraction anymore.

This Modular Wall System is very nice!
Color: Dark Gray, Size: 2 Panel "I"
This VIVO Modular Wall System, 2 PET Panels, Modern Professional Office Cubicle Dividers, is very nice! It is super easy to set up and individually, they are not too heavy, yet heavy enough to not be knocked over easily. They are very versatile in the way you want to use them. Personally, I want to set a divider for my recording space, and my desk/work space for better efficiency when doing one or the other. It’s also great if you need a backdrop if you do any type of video recording. Beautifully designed wall systems, thanks!
