‘Van Gogh’ is a rare Spanish lavender grown for color and form, not for harvest. Soft violet flowers run the full length of each spike, topped with greenish-white bracts that give the blooms a layered, brushed look. The foliage stays bright green, making the flowers stand out even more.

This is not a lavender for cutting or cooking. It’s grown for how it looks—especially up close. The plant stays compact and works best in containers, small garden spaces, and warm-climate plantings where its unusual shape and color can be appreciated.

Like most Spanish lavenders, ‘Van Gogh’ needs mild winters and very good drainage. In cooler areas, it does best in pots that can be protected from hard freezes.

What to Expect With Your Plants

What size plants will I receive?

Most plants ship in 2 3/8” x 3 3/4” band pots—ideal for healthy root growth.

Top growth varies by variety and season, but every plant arrives well-rooted, actively growing, and ready to plant.

Grown naturally without artificial heat or lights, our plants are hardy, adaptable, and ready to thrive in real garden conditions.

When will my plants ship?

We schedule plant orders based on your area’s average last frost date and when each plant is truly ready to ship. You’ll receive an email with your estimated ship date once your order is scheduled.

Orders ship Monday–Wednesday via UPS or USPS (2–3 day service), so your plants arrive before the weekend and spend less time in transit. Shipping begins in spring—usually mid-April—when weather and plant health align, so your plants arrive strong, well-rooted, and ready to thrive.

Do you guarantee your plants?

We stand behind our plants and our packing process. While we can't control weather or how plants are cared for after arrival, we do guarantee that your plants will arrive healthy and in good condition. If there's an issue, just reach out and we're happy to help.
