Description
Dwarf Lavender ‘Little Lady’ (Lavandula angustifolia ‘Little Lady’) is a charming lavender shrub variety that’s perfect for patio container planting and creating vibrant borders around small gardens. Known for its subtle fragrance and beautiful pale purple flowers, this dwarf cultivar brings the same allure as Lavender Hidcote but in a more compact package.
‘Little Lady’ puts on up to 20-40cm each year and is best suited to a height of 0.2-0.5m, making it an excellent choice for low hedges or ground cover that won’t overwhelm your space. It flowers abundantly in early to mid-summer, attracting bees and butterflies with its nectar-rich blooms. Despite its petite size, ‘Little Lady’ is robust and able to withstand both drought and frost, making it a durable addition to any garden setting. Discover more drought-tolerant hedging species here.
This variety thrives best in full sun and prefers well-drained soil, typical of any Mediterranean plant. Its neat and tidy growth requires minimal effort to maintain, ideal for novice gardeners or those with limited gardening time.
Pot-grown Dwarf Lavender plants are available from March, offering a quick and easy way to incorporate this delightful plant into your outdoor spaces. For more detailed planting instructions, visit our comprehensive lavender care guide.

Pruning Advice
Dwarf Lavender ‘Little Lady’ is a slightly more fragile species that benefits from light pruning each year to maintain its shape and promote healthy blooms. The best time for this is in late summer, ideally at the end of August after the main flowering period has ended.
Trimming should be light, removing only the spent flowers and about 2-3cm of the current year’s growth to let more light peek through. Avoid cutting into the old wood, as this can damage the plant and cause it to not flower properly the following year.
