🌿 Rare Find: Featured in our curated Rare & Uncommon Garden Plants Collection. Limited availability.
Lavandula viridis, often called green lavender, stands apart from traditional purple varieties with its bright green foliage, piney fragrance, and pale yellow to creamy-white flowers. Its compact clusters and decorative bracts resemble French and Spanish lavenders, but with a lighter, fresher color palette.
This variety blooms for an exceptionally long season—from spring through autumn—bringing steady color and scent to warm-climate gardens. The aroma is distinctive, with notes similar to rosemary and pine. Garden writer and horticulturist Robert Kourik has ranked it among the top lavenders for grilling and cooking because of its savory, herb-like flavor.
With its tidy size and evergreen habit, green lavender works beautifully in containers, rock gardens, and Mediterranean-style landscapes where structure and fragrance matter year-round.

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.
Are your plants inspected for plant health and disease?
Yes. Our nursery is inspected at least twice each year by the Oregon Department of Agriculture and meets state plant health and disease standards.
Why does shipping cost what it does for live plants?
Shipping live plants requires careful packaging, seasonal timing, and fast transit to ensure they arrive healthy.
Our shipping rates are calculated in real time based on box size, weight, and destination, and we always select the best available option for safe, timely delivery.
We never inflate shipping costs — you pay what it costs us to ship your order safely.

Happy to locate and purchase hard to find yellow lavander (lavandula viridis) This is a tender Lavander that probably originates near Portugal. Plan to shelter this inside during the coldest part of winter in Zone 8 so planting in containers. Beautiful, well packed little plants arrived with good tracking from Charsaw Farms.
