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.

Bugs Within Code
Format: Paperback
The blueprint code where we change the material of the character skeletal mesh has a serious game breaking bug. When the player picks up just ONE of the spheres, the game exits after three seconds despite the fact that there are still two remaining. I followed the code to the letter, even going out of my way to using the exact same engine version as in the book. There are no hints nor tips within the book that offers solutions should any problems arise. Therefore, one would expect the code to be flawless and bug free. At this point, one would be better off seeking free tutorials from elsewhere. The book does not go in depth with anything considered 'advanced' (interactive doors). Very disappointing considering how much one pays for the book.

A Must Have For The Beginner
Format: Kindle
So I've had an the opportunity to spend time with this book and I have to say that I'm very satisfied. Normally when you're reading tech books that claim to be for beginners they assume that you know things and skips steps, but this book doesn't do that. I went from being super intimidated about programming and back end development, but this book eases your mind and makes you feel like you can do anything. And after reading it you start looking at programming in a completely different way. Pros: * Easy to comprehend * Well laid out * The tone of the author is very pleasant and not boring at all * Encourages you to experiment with what you've learned and encourages you to go out explore even further * He makes you feel smart * He makes you feel like you actually have a shot at being a paid developer Cons: * There were a few typos and some missing syntax in a few of the coding examples, but even with that being the case this book is still awesome Once I land a gig here in the next three months it'll be thanks to this book and this amazing author. Thanks =)

A good book for beginners
Format: Paperback
Well I spent about 3 hours reviewing this book last night and I actually think I understood most of it. I still have a long way to go. And I’m not ready to call myself a software engineer any time soon. I think I would need to take about 3 college courses in software engineering and this book would be the first textbook. I would recommend that the index be expanded. I would recommend a book on Python to go with this book.
