Phenomenal French Lavender (Lavandula x intermedia 'Niko')

Phenomenal French Lavender, Lavandula x intermedia 'Niko', is a vigorous, sun loving French hybrid lavender known for its strong garden performance, long flower wands, and fragrant gray green foliage. Plants form a broad, mounded shrub that stays attractive through heat, humidity, and cold, then cover themselves in tall, violet blue flower spikes in summer. With its robust habit, reliable bloom, and classic lavender scent, Phenomenal French Lavender works beautifully as a focal point, low hedge, or high impact accent along paths, in borders, and in large containers.

Distinctive Features

Phenomenal French Lavender typically grows about 24 to 32 inches tall and 24 to 36 inches wide, forming a rounded, shrub like clump with a framework of woody stems and a full crown of leafy shoots. Long, sturdy flower stalks rise above the foliage and carry dense spikes of violet blue florets, creating a broad wash of color and movement when the plant is in bloom. Narrow, gray green leaves provide fine texture and a silvery cast that blends easily with stone, gravel, and a wide range of flowering companions. Bred for strong vigor and improved tolerance of challenging conditions, this variety is a good choice where you want a dependable lavender that holds up in real garden settings.

Growing Conditions

  • Light: Prefers full sun with at least 6 hours of direct light daily for best flowering, fragrance, and a compact, sturdy habit.
  • Soil: Thrives in well drained, lean to average soils; avoid heavy, wet ground and favor sandy or gravelly conditions that keep roots on the dry side.
  • Water: Water regularly after planting to establish; once rooted in, water deeply but infrequently, allowing the top of the soil to dry between waterings.
  • Hardiness: Well suited to many temperate regions where French hybrid lavenders are grown outdoors, especially when provided with sharp drainage in winter.
  • Size: Generally forms a mound about 24 to 32 inches tall and 24 to 36 inches wide at maturity, depending on climate and care.
  • Growth Rate: Moderate grower that fills in steadily and develops a substantial presence without quickly outgrowing beds or large containers.

Ideal Uses

  • Bold Focal Point: Use as a single specimen or in small groups in sunny borders and herb gardens where the tall flower wands and strong scent create a natural focal point.
  • Edging and Low Hedges: Plant in a row along paths, drives, or terrace edges to form a low, fragrant hedge of gray green foliage and violet blue blooms.
  • Containers and Patio Pots: Well suited to large pots and tubs where the mounded form and tall flower spikes add height, scent, and movement around outdoor seating areas.
  • Herb and Cutting Gardens: Ideal in spaces dedicated to herbs and cut flowers, providing long stems for fresh bouquets and drying projects.
  • Cottage and Mediterranean Gardens: Mix with roses, salvias, ornamental grasses, and other sun lovers for relaxed cottage combinations, or set into gravel and stone for a dry, Mediterranean inspired look.

Low Maintenance Care

  • Watering: After establishment, water when the top inch of soil is dry; avoid constant moisture or soggy conditions that can lead to root and crown problems.
  • Pruning: Shear lightly after the main flush of bloom to remove spent spikes and shape the mound; avoid cutting back into old, bare wood below the leafy growth.
  • Fertilizing: Requires only light feeding; in spring, apply a small amount of balanced, slow release fertilizer if soil is very lean, since excessive nutrients can cause soft, floppy growth.
  • Mulching: Use a thin layer of gravel or coarse mulch around the base to improve drainage and keep foliage off wet soil, avoiding heavy organic mulches against the stems.
  • Seasonal Care: In colder climates, provide excellent drainage and a sunny, sheltered spot; in late winter or early spring, tidy lightly to remove any winter damage and keep the plant compact and productive.

Why Choose Phenomenal French Lavender?

  • Strong Garden Performance: Bred for vigor and reliability, handling sun, heat, and challenging conditions better than many traditional lavenders.
  • Long, Showy Flower Spikes: Tall, violet blue blooms give impressive height and movement and are excellent for cutting and drying.
  • Intense Fragrance: Highly scented flowers and foliage make it a top choice for scented garden paths, patios, and indoor projects.
  • Bold Color and Form: Large mound of gray green foliage and tall flower wands provide a classic lavender look on a bigger scale.
  • Versatile Design Use: Works as a focal shrub, low hedge, mass planting, or feature in herb and cottage gardens wherever you want strong color, fragrance, and structure in full sun.

With its vigorous, mounded habit, long violet blue flower spikes, and intense fragrance, Phenomenal French Lavender is an excellent choice for adding bold color, scent, and a reliable focal point to sunny borders, hedges, cutting gardens, and large containers.

Best of the facial wipes
Scent: Unscented, Size: 25 Count (Pack of 3)
I have used a lot of facial wipes. But, because of environmental reasons I am trying to cut back on the excess use of wipes which will go into a landfill. However, there are times when I am just too tired or too lazy to do a whole cleansing routine at night and I will reach for a wipe. These do a good job of taking off even waterproof makeup and yet still being gentle on the skin. I find I have no sensitivity to them(and I am sensitive to many, many things). I bought them specifically this time for my trip to Thailand because I knew it would be hot and humid and that I probably would need to cleanse my face a couple of times during the day from sweat and grime. They worked and I found them refreshing. I think I will always keep them on hand for the times I need them — this is by far my favorite brand.

Great for Rosacea Skincare
Scent: Unscented, Size: 25 Count (Pack of 6)
My elderly mom has rosacea and these moist Micellar Facial Wipes are the absolute best for cleaning her delicate skin. I was so happy to discover Simple Facial Wipes because I had tried many other brands in the past, but all of the other wipes irritated her face and caused a burning sensation. These wipes are soft, sturdy and unscented. They are also pricier than other brands, but they are well worth the cost.

Best wipes at a great price!
Scent: Unscented, Size: 25 Count (Pack of 6)
These are about the best facial cleansing wipes I've found anywhere, and if you buy the bundle it's a great bargain as well. The wipes are gentle on my sensitive skin, but do a thorough job of getting off the makeup, even mascara and eyeliner. My husband was shaking an ink cartridge the other day and black ink sprayed out all over his face and shirt. On impulse we grabbed one of my facial wipes and started to clean the ink off his face. It easily cleaned up all of the ink, even from his mustache and beard with no residue, and I only had to use two of them. That's how effective these wipes are!
