Hidcote Certified Organic Lavender

Hidcote Lavender (Lavandula angustifolia ‘Hidcote’) originates from one of England’s most celebrated gardens — Hidcote Manor in Gloucestershire — and carries that distinguished heritage in its most recognizable quality: the deepest, most vivid purple flower spikes of any English lavender variety. Compact and mounded, Hidcote stays neat and shrub-like with minimal pruning, making it one of the most garden-friendly lavenders available for borders, rock gardens, containers, and small spaces. Intensely fragrant, deer resistant, drought tolerant once established, and genuinely excellent for culinary use, sachets, dried bouquets, and teas. USDA-Certified Organic. Perennial in Zones 5–9.

The Deepest Purple — Hidcote Manor’s Most Famous Lavender

Hidcote’s deep, vivid purple flower spikes are its defining ornamental quality — more intensely colored than most English lavender varieties, creating a richer, more dramatic display in the garden when in full bloom. Named for Hidcote Manor Garden in Gloucestershire, England — one of the most influential and beloved cottage gardens in British horticultural history — it carries the aesthetic refinement and attention to form that the garden itself is celebrated for.

Compact and Mounded — The Neat, Self-Managing Lavender

Hidcote’s compact, mounded habit stays tidy with minimal intervention — it doesn’t require as much annual pruning to maintain shape as taller, more open varieties. The dense, rounded form makes it ideal for formal border edging where consistency of shape is as important as bloom display, and for container plantings where a self-managing shrub is more practical than a rangy, spreading one.

USDA-Certified Organic — Culinary and Craft Versatility

Every Stark Bro’s Hidcote Lavender arrives USDA-Certified Organic, potted in quality soil, and ready to plant. The intensely aromatic flowers and foliage are excellent fresh or dried — in culinary preparations (lavender shortbread, herbes de Provence, infused honey), in sachets and potpourri, and in teas and wellness preparations where the calming aromatic oils are the point.
