Silver Mist English Lavender (Lavandula angustifolia 'Silver Mist')

Silver Mist English Lavender, Lavandula angustifolia 'Silver Mist', is a compact English lavender grown as much for its shimmering silver foliage as for its soft lavender purple flower spikes. Plants form a low, rounded mound of finely textured gray silver leaves that brighten sunny borders, paths, and containers even before bloom. In late spring and early summer, slender flower wands rise just above the foliage, adding gentle color, movement, and a classic lavender fragrance that makes this variety a natural focal point in well drained, sun drenched garden spaces.

Distinctive Features

Silver Mist English Lavender typically grows about 12 to 18 inches tall and 14 to 20 inches wide, forming a dense, cushion like mound that stays tidy with only light pruning. The foliage is a standout feature, with narrow leaves that read as bright silver from a distance and provide a cool, luminous backdrop for the flowers. Flower spikes carry many small lavender purple florets that create a soft wash of color above the mound rather than tall, towering stems. The combination of compact size, silvery foliage, and gentle bloom makes this variety especially useful where you want a bright, refined accent that looks good from spring through fall.

Growing Conditions

  • Light: Prefers full sun with at least 6 hours of direct light daily for best flowering, strong fragrance, and dense, compact growth.
  • Soil: Thrives in well drained, lean to average soils; avoid heavy or waterlogged 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: Suited to many temperate regions where English lavender is grown outdoors, especially when provided with sharp drainage in winter.
  • Size: Forms a compact mound about 12 to 18 inches tall and 14 to 20 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 Pathways: Plant in a row along walks, drives, or bed edges to create a low, fragrant band of silver foliage and soft lavender bloom.
  • Containers and Patio Pots: Excellent in clay pots, troughs, and mixed planters where the compact mound and silver leaves add brightness, scent, and texture.
  • Front of Border Accent: Ideal for the front of sunny borders where its cushion like shape and luminous foliage form a neat visual anchor.
  • Herb and Scent Gardens: Perfect near seating areas, entries, and paths so aromatic foliage and flowers can be brushed and enjoyed up close.
  • Cottage and Mediterranean Gardens: Mix with roses, salvias, grasses, and other sun lovers for classic cottage combinations, or pair with stone and gravel for a cool, 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 maintain a dense mound; avoid cutting back into old woody stems that do not have 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 Silver Mist English Lavender?

  • Striking Silver Foliage: Bright gray silver leaves add light and contrast to borders, rock gardens, and containers even when the plant is not in bloom.
  • Compact, Tidy Habit: Naturally low, rounded form is easy to manage in small gardens, narrow beds, and patio plantings.
  • Soft Lavender Flowers: Gentle flower color complements the silver foliage and combines easily with a wide range of perennials and shrubs.
  • Aromatic and Sun Loving: Fragrant foliage and flowers perform well in hot, bright exposures when planted in well drained soil.
  • Versatile Design Use: Works as edging, a foliage accent, a container feature, or a small scale focal point wherever you want classic lavender fragrance paired with standout silver leaves.

With its compact cushion habit, luminous silver foliage, and soft lavender purple flower spikes, Silver Mist English Lavender is an excellent choice for adding color, scent, and a refined focal point to sunny borders, pathways, rock gardens, and containers.

Great dog toothbrush!
Color: Blue (2-pack)
I’ve been using this product for a year now, and it’s been working great. When paired with vanilla mint enzymatic toothpaste, it effectively cleans my Pomsky’s teeth, including the back teeth. As a result, my fur baby’s teeth remain as white as ever!

great for Odor control and also seems to be calming to the cats.
This product is magic. for my cats it not only smells good and don't need more than 1 spray pump, but it also acts to sooth the cats , creating a calmness in them somehow. I will definitely buy more as this begins to run low, love this product. Works fantastic for odor control and seems like it is not just masking. highly recommend this product!

Fabulous product
Oh wow this smells great! We take trips to relatives at times with our dogs, and the guest room can begin to smell like the dogs; this makes it smell better (less embarrassing). It smells great, it's small and thin and can pack easily, no leaking noted, medium strength which I like as it's not overpowering. Great value. Recommend.
