Munstead English Lavender (Lavandula angustifolia 'Munstead')

Munstead English Lavender, Lavandula angustifolia 'Munstead', is a compact, sun loving lavender cherished for its soft purple blue flower spikes, fragrant gray green foliage, and reliable performance in well drained gardens. Plants form neat, rounded mounds that tuck easily along paths, at the front of borders, and in containers, bringing classic cottage garden charm and soothing scent into smaller spaces. Early season blooms rise above the foliage in late spring to early summer, drawing in pollinators and creating a gentle yet clear focal point wherever you want a low, refined accent in full sun.

Distinctive Features

Munstead English Lavender typically grows about 12 to 18 inches tall and 18 to 24 inches wide, forming a dense, shrub like clump with woody bases and soft, leafy shoots toward the tips. Slender flower spikes carry many small purple blue florets that read as a soft band of color when the plant is in bloom, while narrow gray green leaves provide fine texture and a silvery cast that looks attractive even between flushes of flowers. The combination of modest height, classic flower color, and strong fragrance makes Munstead a long time favorite for edging, low hedging, and high visibility plantings around patios and entries.

Growing Conditions

  • Light: Prefers full sun with at least 6 hours of direct light daily for best flowering, compact growth, and strong fragrance.
  • Soil: Thrives in well drained, lean to average soils; avoids heavy, wet ground and performs best in 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 English lavender is grown outdoors, especially when provided with sharp drainage in winter.
  • Size: Generally forms a mound about 12 to 18 inches tall and 18 to 24 inches wide at maturity, depending on climate and care.
  • Growth Rate: Moderate grower that fills in steadily without quickly outgrowing beds, borders, or containers.

Ideal Uses

  • Edging and Low Hedges: Plant in a row along walks, drives, or bed edges to create a low, fragrant ribbon of gray green foliage and purple blooms.
  • Containers and Patio Pots: Excellent in clay pots, troughs, and mixed planters where the compact mound and upright flower spikes add height, scent, and color.
  • Front of Border Accent: Ideal for the front of sunny borders where its neat habit and soft flowers form a dependable visual anchor.
  • Herb and Scent Gardens: Perfect near seating areas, entries, and paths so aromatic foliage and blooms can be brushed and enjoyed up close.
  • Cottage and Mediterranean Gardens: Mix with roses, salvias, and other sun loving perennials for classic cottage combinations, or pair with stone and gravel for a simple, Mediterranean feel.

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 maintain a dense mound; avoid cutting back into old woody stems that have no leaves.
  • 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 plants compact.

Why Choose Munstead English Lavender?

  • Classic Cottage Favorite: Soft purple blue blooms and silvery foliage bring traditional lavender charm to paths, borders, and containers.
  • Compact, Tidy Habit: Naturally rounded form is easy to manage in small gardens, narrow beds, and patio plantings.
  • Aromatic Foliage: Fragrant gray green leaves add soothing scent and soft texture to outdoor living areas and can be used for simple cut and dried projects.
  • Sun and Heat Tolerant: Performs well in hot, bright exposures when planted in well drained soil or raised beds.
  • Versatile Design Use: Works as edging, in mixed borders, in herb and scent gardens, or as a container feature wherever you want dependable lavender color, fragrance, and a refined focal point in full sun.

With its compact habit, soft purple blue flower spikes, and fragrant gray green foliage, Munstead English Lavender is an excellent choice for adding classic lavender beauty, scent, and a low maintenance focal point to sunny borders, pathways, and containers.

Great value, great product!
I use this as a home jewelry box - I don't wear a lot of jewelry, so it fits my needs perfectly. Its pretty lightweight and would be good for travels as well. The outside is leather-like and seems to be waterproof so far. I use the first layer for jewelery and second layer to store my hairclips and pins. I've had it for a few months and it seems to be great quality and durable! Definitely a good value as well because I've seen similar jewelry boxes sold at popular retail stores for over $30.

Lovely Slate Gray Jewelry Box
I just received this Slate Gray jewelry box. It's really quite lovely and just the right size for my granddaughter's vanity. I'm really excited about giving it to her, for her 12th Birthday, to hold her better jewelry. It's so nice I'm going to order another one for my other Granddaughter's Birthday.

Songmics Slate Gray Travel Jewelry Box
I purchased the slate gray Songmics jewelry box for travel purposes. We take long vacations and have an upcoming 20 day cruise. I wanted a jewelry box that was compact enough to put in my carry-on bag, but still had room to hold a months worth of jewelry, especially to keep my necklaces for tangling. When this arrived, I was pleasantly surprised and the packaging was great, shipped in a sturdy box. so no damage to the jewelry box. The color is a rich gray and the 2 tier box, while small, holds a lot of jewelry. I wanted to purchase the ink black but could not justify paying twice the price of the gray one just to get it in black. It is small enough that it will fit in most any hotel/ship safe so I won't be sitting out in the room anyway. It has a strong magnetic snap that keeps the box from opening while in transit. The one negative for me is that the pierced earring card is so thick that my earrings barely go through to have enough room on the back side the slip the backs on. I may separate the double thick card, realizing it will not look as nice but will be more functional. The bottom half of the box will hold bracelets up to 1 1/4" wide. There is enough room under the earrings card to place pendants, additional earrings, etc. The necklace holder is designed to hold 5 necklaces, but I added one more by going across the top, end to end, to prevent tangling. I also placed smaller hoop earrings in the ring holder which holds them securely. This box held 7 bracelets, 2 of which were wide, 5 rings, 9 necklaces (I placed 3 in the bottom of the box, and had room for 23 pair of earrings (some placed in the ring holder and in the bottom of the bo)! I would buy this again in a heartbeat.
