New Product!

Goodwin Creek Lavender (Lavandula heterophylla ‘Goodwin Creek’) is the lavender that blooms longest — a French lavender hybrid with deep lavender-blue flower spikes that appear from early summer and continue through late fall, far outlasting the bloom season of standard English lavender varieties. The striking silvery-gray foliage provides year-round ornamental appeal even when not in bloom, and the compact, upright habit lends itself beautifully to containers, borders, topiary shaping, and rock gardens. USDA-Certified Organic, drought tolerant once established, deer resistant, and attractive to bees, butterflies, and hummingbirds. Perennial in Zones 6–9; container-friendly for overwintering indoors in cooler climates.

Early Summer Through Late Fall — The Longest Lavender Bloom Season

Most lavender varieties have a concentrated bloom period of a few weeks. Goodwin Creek extends that dramatically — blooming from early summer continuously through late fall in a long, generous display that provides months of fragrant, deep lavender-blue flower spikes rather than a brief, intense season. For gardeners who want lavender color and fragrance in the landscape through the full growing season, that extended bloom is genuinely distinctive.

Silvery Foliage — Year-Round Ornamental Presence

Goodwin Creek’s soft silvery-gray foliage is as ornamental as its blooms — a distinctive color that provides genuine landscape interest through every season, including the months when the plant isn’t actively flowering. The textural contrast of silver-gray leaves against surrounding green plantings is particularly effective in borders and mixed herb gardens, and the compact 2–3 foot habit maintains its presence without overwhelming neighboring plants.

USDA-Certified Organic — Topiary-Friendly and Container-Ready

Every Stark Bro’s Goodwin Creek Lavender arrives USDA-Certified Organic, potted in quality soil, and ready to plant. The compact, upright habit responds well to shaping — trim in late summer or fall to maintain form and encourage bushy growth. Container growing keeps it manageable for patios and overwinters easily indoors in climates colder than Zone 6.
