*begins shipping in April*

Transform your garden with the luxurious, velvety deep purple blooms of our Royal Velvet Lavender (Lavandula angustifolia ‘Royal Velvet’). Introduced in the 1980s by the Van Hevelingen Herb Nursery, this award-winning English lavender cultivar is renowned for its rapid growth, long-lasting blooms, and superior tolerance to wet winters and humid conditions—outshining many other varieties like Hidcote with its longer flower stems and darker, more vibrant color retention when dried. Each order includes a healthy 72-cell size plant, ideal for gardeners craving a classic, culinary-grade lavender with exceptional fragrance and performance in USDA Hardiness Zones 5-9 (with some sources noting hardiness down to Zone 4b) at an unbeatable price. Grown with meticulous care, this vigorous plug features a robust root system and aromatic gray-green foliage, primed to flourish in borders, herb gardens, or containers.

Royal Velvet Lavender earns its regal name with elegant, long-stemmed spikes of dark navy blue to violet-purple flowers (3-4 inches long) that sway gracefully from early to late summer—often reblooming in August or September after deadheading or harvesting the first flush. Its intense, sweet, pure floral scent (with low camphor content) wafts through the air, captivating the senses while luring bees, butterflies, and other pollinators to your yard; it's a top choice for therapeutic uses like aromatherapy, stress relief, and culinary applications such as flavoring baked goods, teas, or jellies.

A true performer in well-drained soils, this variety thrives in dry conditions but impresses with its adaptability to humid summers and wet winters—making it a standout where other English lavenders falter. Compact and tidy at 24-30 inches tall and 30-36 inches wide, it's perfect for low hedges, rock gardens, mass plantings, or as a fragrant culinary herb, delivering enduring beauty, aroma, and utility with minimal effort. Its deer and rabbit resistance, plus superb color retention when dried, make it a beloved choice for both novice and expert gardeners.

Key Features

  • Healthy Plugs: 72-cell size plugs with strong, vigorous root systems for quick establishment and rapid growth.
  • Velvety Deep Purple Blooms: Long, fragrant flower spikes (3-4 inches) ideal for fresh cutting, drying, or bouquets; darker and longer-stemmed than Hidcote.
  • Fragrant and Versatile: Classic English lavender scent with low camphor; great for potpourri, essential oils, aromatherapy, and culinary uses like baking or infusing.
  • Hardy and Adaptable: Thrives in Zones 5-9 (to 4b) with excellent tolerance to humidity, heat, wet winters, and poor soils; drought-tolerant once established.
  • Pollinator Magnet: Draws bees and butterflies; deer- and rabbit-resistant for hassle-free gardening.
  • Low Maintenance: Long bloom time (early summer to late summer, with potential second flush), evergreen foliage in mild climates, and strong disease resistance to common issues like root rot.

Shipping Information Your Royal Velvet Lavender plant ships directly to you in mid to late April, ensuring it arrives vibrant and ready for spring planting. Each plug is thoughtfully packaged to preserve plant vitality during transit, so it hits your garden in top form.

Planting & Care Instructions

  • Planting: Select a spot with full sun (6-8 hours daily) and well-drained soil. Space plants 30-36 inches apart for air circulation. Dig a hole as deep as the root ball and twice as wide; create a raised mound for superior drainage to prevent root rot. Prefers alkaline soil (pH 6.5-7.5), sandy or loamy textures.
  • Watering: Water moderately during the first season to establish roots, then sparingly—let soil dry out fully between waterings to mimic lavender's native dry habitat; extremely drought-tolerant once established.
  • Soil: Prefers sandy or loamy soil with a pH of 6.5-7.5; avoids heavy clay or soggy areas. Amend with gravel or sand if needed for better drainage.
  • Pruning: Deadhead spent flowers mid-season to promote rebloom; lightly trim in early spring (by one-third) for shape and to remove any winter dieback. Every third year, prune back to 8 inches to stimulate new growth.
  • Winter Care: Mulch base with gravel in Zone 5 for protection while keeping soil dry; generally hardy without fuss, with good wet winter tolerance.

Why Choose Royal Velvet Lavender? Indulge in the timeless elegance and intoxicating fragrance of Royal Velvet Lavender, a standout English lavender with deeper purple blooms, longer stems, and better humidity tolerance than classics like Munstead or Hidcote. This 72-cell plug is a fast-growing, drought-tolerant gem that brings velvety purple drama and silvery foliage to your space, hardy across Zones 5-9 in sunny, dry spots. Whether for stunning displays, culinary delights, dried crafts, or pollinator support, it's the sophisticated lavender that elevates any garden effortlessly.

Why are these books so hard to find in libraries and bookstores??!
Format: Paperback
Bought nearly the whole book series after reading the reviews. My 8 and 10 year old boys love these books. My 10 year old read the first book on his way to and from soccer practice. He couldn't put it down and kept telling me what he read. My boys have read all the "Magic Treehouse", "I Survived" and some "I Escaped" books, as well as "Big Nate", "Diary of a Wimpy Kid", etc. BUT these battle books are the best. They really teach about the history of the wars which have shaped our modern times. WHY are these books so hard to find in libraries and bookstores... at least in Maryland? Maybe because "Great Battles for Boys" reeks of toxic masculinity? I really wonder. In any case, great books especially if you want your boys to read serious, informative books that are interesting and entertaining.

Great for boys AND MOMS
Format: Paperback
Saw an ad for the series online and wanted to buy just one book to try. Received with 2 day Prime. Book was new. So, not only does this book have an incredible, intriguing story that sucked in my 10 year old who hates reading and struggles to read, it had me at Hello. The beginning of the book is filled with recipes! Was totally not expecting that! So for this Momma, under promise-over deliver was the theme here. Purchasing the rest of the books! Also look online for worksheets that parents have put together to go along with these books. Totally worth it. Happy Reading! AND Cooking!

Great reads for all levels
Format: Paperback
I bought 2 for a 6th grade boy I tutor. He has a beginning interest in history. He's been 'eating' these books up! These are well written, but not complex to turn a young reader off. There are many alternative resources to listed to dive into if a particular person or event sparks interest with the reader. There is appropriate vocabulary with explanations on some- others open a chance for my student & I to have a deeper discussion to clarify meaning & connect information.

Great book for an (almost) 11 year old to learn about WW2
Format: Paperback
My (almost) 11 year old says he enjoyed this book because it gives specific details and has pictures of what was going on making it easy to understand what was happening. The only thing he’d change was that the pictures weren’t in color (lol)!
