Lavandula angustifolia ‘Big Time White’ 

Big, Beautiful White Blooms on a Compact Lavender!

Who says lavender has to be purple? Lavender ‘Big Time White’ brings a fresh twist to a timeless garden favorite with exceptionally large, pure-white flower spikes rising above beautifully fragrant, silvery-green foliage.

This remarkable English Lavender was bred to deliver impressive flowers without requiring an abundance of garden space. Its compact, bushy growth and sturdy flower stems create a beautifully balanced plant that looks just as lovely in decorative containers as it does along garden pathways and perennial borders.

How Is ‘Big Time White’ Different from Our ‘White Provence’ Lavender?

While both varieties produce beautiful white flowers and offer the classic fragrance gardeners love, they have distinctly different personalities.

Our Lavender ‘White Provence’ is a larger-growing lavandin hybrid known for its long flower stems, vigorous growth, and fragrant harvests. It's a wonderful choice for spacious herb gardens, lavender hedges, dried bouquets, and homemade aromatic crafts.

‘Big Time White’, on the other hand, is a true English Lavender (Lavandula angustifolia) prized for its compact habit and exceptionally large white flower spikes. Its strong, upright stems hold the flowers beautifully above the foliage, making it especially appealing for smaller gardens, patio containers, and tidy borders.

Which One Should You Choose?

If you want a larger lavender for fragrant harvests and traditional garden plantings, ‘White Provence’ is an excellent choice. If you prefer a more compact plant with oversized white blooms and a neat, refined appearance, ‘Big Time White’ may be exactly what you're looking for.

Of course, there's no reason you can't grow both! Together, these two beautiful white lavenders bring contrasting heights, delightful fragrance, and timeless elegance to sunny garden spaces.

With its impressive flowers, drought tolerance, and attraction to pollinators, Lavender ‘Big Time White’ proves that sometimes the most beautiful garden additions come in smaller packages.

Growing Guide

Lavender ‘Big Time White’ thrives in full sun with excellent drainage. Like other English Lavenders, it prefers relatively lean soil and performs best when its roots are not kept constantly wet.

Light: Full sun, ideally 6–8 hours of direct sunlight daily.

Watering: Water regularly while establishing, allowing the soil to dry slightly between waterings. Once established, water deeply but infrequently. Avoid overwatering.

Soil: Prefers sandy, gravelly, or well-draining soil. Heavy clay soils should be amended or planted in raised beds to improve drainage.

Fertilizing: Requires very little fertilizer. Excessive feeding can produce weak growth and reduce flowering.

Pruning: Remove spent flower spikes to encourage additional blooms. Lightly shape the plant after flowering or in spring, avoiding cuts into old, leafless woody stems.

Winter Care: Cold hardy in suitable climates, provided the roots have excellent drainage. Avoid soggy winter conditions and thick, moisture-retaining mulch around the crown.

Growing Tip: Lavender prefers a little neglect over too much attention! Plenty of sunshine, excellent air circulation, and relatively dry soil are the secrets to healthy plants and fragrant flowers.

Uses & Inspiration

Make Fragrant Sachets: Harvest flower spikes and dry them for homemade sachets, potpourri, and other aromatic botanical crafts.

Welcome Bees and Butterflies: Add ‘Big Time White’ to sunny pollinator gardens where its fragrant flowers provide a valuable nectar source.
