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.

Nice pillow but now really cooling
Size: King (Pack of 1), Color: Original White
So I got the king size bed not realizing how big it was. So that’s a plus if you’re looking for a large pillow. However, it was too big for me so I will be returning. I also wasn’t impressed with the cooling feature. I have a cooling pillow that truly feels cool and this isn’t it. But the memory foam part of this was excellent. It came out of the packaged and within minutes was fluffy and ready for use. Aside from the size and cooling, I’d recommend this pillow. But I get hot at night so I’d like something more cooling.

WHAT A MISTAKE THIS WAS! EXTREMELY SOFT, OFFERING NO SUPPORT AT ALL!
Size: Camping(Pack of 1), Color: Original White, Size: Camping(Pack of 1), Color: Original White
INITIAL Impression: WHAT A MISTAKE THIS WAS! The foam is taking forever to expand, it is a gross color, it is way too soft where it has started to expand. The warranty says it ONLY applies to the original purchaser, which means you cannot give this to anyone as a gift, it would instantly lose its warranty. DO NOT USE ANY EXTERNAL HEAT SOURCE (some memory foam actually suggests putting it in a slightly warm dryer, but to do that would void the warranty.) I got this because I have severe back pain, but it doesn't look like it will ever be firm enough to offer support. It says it will take 24-48 hours to fully expand! I bought it because I need relief NOW, not in 2 days! It has a very limited warranty of only 3 years. The memory foam travel size pillows I bought on Amazon, made by MALOUF, in 2017 came with a 5 year warranty and are still useful, but do need replacing, 9 years later! Unfortunately those pillows are no longer available on Amazon. I chose this small Vaverto memory foam pillow "for camping", because it was available with next morning delivery with some other purchases I made yesterday. (Hoping to be able to use it TODAY.) And because most of the reviews were positive. It says on the crumpled paper warranty and directions, that ONE side of the pillow is for cooling, but WHICH SIDE? They don't tell you. The order "Shipped at 12:31 AM" the box was cold when it was "Delivered at 9:41 AM". The outdoor temperature had climbed to 51 degrees by then from a low last night of 47 degrees. My room is heated to a comfortable 78 degrees. But we still have a long way to go before this hunk of greenish blue, extremely squishy (I can pinch it at the most expanded area and my fingers nearly touch each other with maybe ¼” of foam separating them. NOT an encouraging sign. There are bits of foam starting to come out of the "punched holes" which appear to be slightly smaller on one side than the other, but WHICH is supposed to be the "cooling side that dissipates heat? Probably the larger holes, but they also weaken the firmness. On closer examination of the crumpled paper that came with it, it says '"TWO-SIDED COVER FOR VERSALITY" Then in a tiny diagram next to that, it says "COOLING SIDE DISSPATES BODY HEAT" with Dissipates spelled wrong! Where is this thing made? Ah.. "CHINA" on a severely crumpled tag inside the cover. It also says the cover is “70% Polyester 30% Viscose Made from Bamboo”. But the Photo shows "Bamboo" in large green letters on the cover along with "VaVerto" in much LARGER grey letters above that. The only letters on my case are the bottom part of a "b" with two "oo" next to it, in a grey-green color, extending from the side seam. NO actual WORDS at all. And the cover looks identical on both sides. Okay, it's been well over 4 hours in a very warm room, now 80 degrees with the sun pouring in, and it has mostly expanded, but I can still almost touch my fingers together when pinching the thickest part of the pillow, there is still only about ¼” of foam between my fingers. I would describe that as EXTREMELY SOFT. In the actual description of the product, on the Amazon page, if you open the "Features & Specs" it shows "Item Firmness Description - Medium" NOT what the headline says for the product: "Vaverto Small Memory Foam Bed Pillow for Camping - Compressible Medium Firm, Breathable Cover, Machine Washable, Ideal Backpacking". If I weren’t bedridden in a nursing home this would go back immediately, but it is very hard to get the staff here to help me return ANYTHING that needs to be taken to a store or kiosk. So I may just be out $22.07. FINAL Impression: WHAT A MISTAKE THIS WAS! EXTREMELY SOFT, OFFERING NO SUPPORT AT ALL! (PHOTOS ARE NOT ACCURATE to the product!!)

Comfy, but not Cooling
Comfy for a stomach sleeper, but doesn’t stay cool as promised by other reviews.
