Edelweiss Lavender — A White Lavender that really is

White lavender is one of those ideas that sounds better than it usually looks. Most are small, reluctant to flower, or go a disappointing grey-green when they dry. Edelweiss is the exception. It is a Lavandin — the same sub-species as Grosso and Phenomenal — which gives it the vigour and height that most white lavenders lack. The flowers open from buds that start with a pale pink blush, fading to pure white as the spike matures, which means you get a soft, shifting display rather than a flat block of colour.

As a garden plant, Edelweiss is steady and reliable. It makes a broad, rounded mound of grey-green foliage about 60–75cm across, with flower spikes held well above on long stems — good for cutting. The scent is sweeter and gentler than most Lavandins, without the camphor hit that Grosso carries. It also flowers later than white English lavenders such as Arctic Snow, from July into September, and it is hardy in the UK.

A Different Kind of Lavender Border

White lavender changes how a border looks. Where purple lavender says Mediterranean, cottage garden, or traditional English, white says something more contemporary. Edelweiss works beautifully in modern planting schemes - Piet Oudolf has been known to use it — with ornamental grasses, with pale roses, with silver foliage plants like Artemisia and Stachys. It is the lavender for people who want the scent and the structure but not the colour cliché. It also makes a quietly striking single-colour hedge, though you need to accept that white lavender will never have the visual punch of royal purple — what it loses in drama it gains in subtlety.

Planting Companions

The classic pairing is with Hidcote — deep purple against white for a clean, high-contrast combination. Plant Edelweiss behind Rosea for a pink-and-white scheme that nobody expects from lavender. Alongside rosemary, it makes an evergreen, low-maintenance Mediterranean border in silver and white. For a more dramatic effect, alternate it with Grosso in a mixed Lavandin hedge — the white and blue-purple together at the same height is a strong combination.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the best white lavender?

Edelweiss is the tallest and most vigorous white lavender we sell. It is a Lavandin, so it has more flower power than white English lavenders like Arctic Snow. If you want a compact white for a small space or a pot, Arctic Snow is the better choice. If you want presence and cutting stems, Edelweiss.

Does white lavender smell the same as purple?

This one does. There is less camphor in Edelweiss than in other Lavandins, which makes it one of the gentler-scented varieties in our range.

Can I grow Edelweiss in a pot?

You can, though like all Lavandins it is a bigger plant than English lavenders. Use a pot at least 35cm across with sharp drainage. If you want white lavender specifically for a container, Arctic Snow will stay more compact. Full advice in our lavender growing guide.

Is Edelweiss lavender good for cooking?

Not really (like most Lavandins). For cooking look for English lavenders like Munstead. The flowers make a pretty garnish, though — white lavender on a dark chocolate cake is a good look.

When does Edelweiss lavender flower?

July to September — later than English lavenders and roughly the same window as Grosso. Plant it alongside Munstead or Hidcote and you get colour from June right through to early autumn.

Really comfortable, good fit
Size: 6X-Large, Color: 5 Pack(black,black,blue,blue,light Coffee)
These are very lightweight and comfortable. The material stretches freely and doesn't bind up anywhere. If you go by the size guide, they should fit perfectly neither too loose nor too tight. Would definitely recommend.

These don't work for me...
Size: Medium, Color: B005
First the good... I like the material; it's very soft, light, and stretchy. I also like the colors, but that's all I like about these boyshort panties. My main goal for panties is to have them NOT ride up into my butt crack leaving the bottoms of my butt hanging out. It's probably comfortable for some, but it drives me nuts to feel this constant need to pull them out of my butt crack and down over my butt cheeks. If I wanted my butt hanging out I'd buy thongs, LOL. The part I really don't understand, is why they make the front and the back the same width/length. I mean clearly more material would be needed in the back to fit around two round humps, right? I mean I guess unless you have what I call a pancake butt, I don't see why there shouldn't be more material on the backside of the underwear. Why is it so dang difficult to find underwear in this style to fit up over butt cheeks? If I pull them down enough to cover the bottoms of my cheeks then the waistband is sitting right at the top of my crack which is extremely annoying (then I feel this constant need to pull them up!) especially when the front is long enough to go up to my belly button!! Who are they making these underwear for??? Ladies with FLAT butts apparently. For reference, I'm 5'5" 130 lbs, hips 37", waist 27", athletic build, as in lean but with muscular glutes & quads from speed skating. Not only are they not made big enough to go up over my rump while still keeping my cheek bottoms from hanging out, but they're too long in the front cause they constantly roll up in the front. I've even tried turning them around, even though they seem to be exactly the same front to back, and they fit exactly the same, no surprise there. I may just be out of luck finding comfy boyshort panties that actually fit the way I want them to. :/

Super soft and comfortable!
I haven't bought new underwear in forever. I used to wear thongs, but now find them incredibly uncomfortable. The last few times I've tried to buy new underwear, the sizing was either way off (I'm a medium, but gave up after having to return them for a large and then extra large) or the quality was horrible (two brands stretch waaaay out and they can fall down while wearing them (I have larger ass-ets, so they shouldn't start to slide down during use). I tried these after buying some bamboo pyjamas and I love them! They are incredibly soft, comfortable, and stretchy. I can use them all day, and they work well, whether I'm lounging on the couch or wearing them under my spandex shorts at the gym, they don't ride up or slide down. They are both comfortable and look sexy, while providing support in all the right places. I haven't had them too long, so I can't speak on the durability, but they appear to be of good quality and I plan to order more, this time without the band.
