Arctic Snow Lavender — The Quiet One in the Row

Most people picture lavender as purple. That is fair enough, and if you lined up ten gardeners and asked them to name a lavender colour, nine would say purple and one would say blue. Arctic Snow is the variety that nobody expects. The flowers are a clean, true white, held on short neat spikes above compact silver-green foliage, and the effect in a border or along a path is quite different from anything a purple lavender can do. Where Hidcote gives you drama and a strong colour statement, Arctic Snow gives you light. It lifts the plants around it, makes a shaded corner feel less heavy, and works in colour schemes where purple would fight with the neighbours.

Arctic Snow is one of the more compact English lavenders, topping out at about 50cm, and it grows slowly enough that it stays tidy without much intervention. That slowness is worth mentioning honestly. A row of P9 Arctic Snow plants will take longer to knit together than a row of Hidcote or Munstead planted at the same time. By the second summer you will have individual mounds touching at the shoulders; by the third, a proper hedge. The scent is sweet and recognisably lavender, though lighter than the purple varieties. On a still July evening you catch it walking past. On a windy day in March, not so much.

White Lavender and the Mixed Hedge

Arctic Snow earns a particular place in the Ashridge range as one third of our mixed English lavender hedge pack, alongside Hidcote and Loddon Pink. The idea is simple: plant them alternating along a path or border edge and you get a hedge in three colours from the same species, all flowering at roughly the same time, all the same height, all needing the same care. The white sits between the deep purple of Hidcote and the pale pink of Loddon Pink and stops them clashing. It is the peacekeeper. You could do the same thing with separate orders of each variety, of course, but the pack takes the arithmetic out of it and gives you equal numbers of each.

White lavender has a slightly different audience from the purple kinds. It turns up in wedding gardens, white borders, moon gardens (the sort of planting designed to look good at dusk), and alongside pale roses where a line of purple would be too heavy. If you already have a lot of purple in a border and want to add lavender without adding more of the same colour, Arctic Snow solves the problem without changing the mood.

Planting Companions

The obvious partner is Hidcote. A line of alternating white and deep purple is one of those combinations that looks like you spent a long time planning it, when in fact it more or less designs itself. Rosemary planted behind gives you a taller evergreen backdrop and extends the Mediterranean feel through the winter months. Catmint, white hardy geraniums and Stachys byzantina (lamb's ears) all sit well alongside Arctic Snow at the front of a sunny border. For a taller white lavender further back, Edelweiss reaches about 75cm and the two whites at different heights make a surprisingly effective layered planting.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is Arctic Snow lavender good for cooking?

In terms of taste, it is as good as any other English lavender. All Lavandula angustifolia varieties have a sweet, low-camphor flavour that works in baking and drinks. The white flowers look rather elegant scattered over a cake or frozen into ice cubes, so if anything it has a slight visual advantage over purple varieties in the kitchen. Munstead is usually cited as the best culinary lavender, but the difference in flavour is marginal.

How far apart should I plant Arctic Snow for a hedge?

Three per metre, so about 33cm apart. Because Arctic Snow is a slower grower than some English lavenders, expect the hedge to fill in fully by the third summer with P9 plants. With 2L plants you will be most of the way there by the end of the second year. Always plant into warm soil, not cold wet ground in early spring.

Can I grow Arctic Snow in a pot?

Yes, and its compact size makes it one of the better lavenders for containers. A pot 25cm across is fine. Use a free-draining compost with added grit or perlite, and do not let it sit in a saucer of water. Our lavender growing guide covers container growing in more detail.

Does Arctic Snow come in the mixed hedge pack?

Yes. It is one of three varieties in our mixed English lavender hedge pack, together with Hidcote and Loddon Pink. The pack gives you equal numbers of each in P9 pots, ready to plant alternating along a path or border. It is our cheapest way to buy lavender if you want a multi-coloured hedge without ordering three separate varieties.

When should I prune Arctic Snow?

After flowering, usually late August or early September. Take off the spent flower spikes and trim about a third of the current season's green growth. Do not cut into old bare wood. A light shape-up in April is fine but the late-summer prune is the one that matters. There is a short video in our pruning guide that shows the technique.

Amazing!
Size: 2.5 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
This sunscreen is amazing! I love that it goes on blue and then turns clear. It’s helping my kids learn to put it on themselves. It also stays on good and we haven’t had any sunburns even on the beach.

Great product
Size: 2.5 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
We really love the roll-on application of the sunscreen. It's great quality and ease for use is perfect for both parents and kids to use. It does require some extra rubbing in after rolled on, but it's perfect in order to see any areas that may or may not have been missed. I recommend and will purchase again.

Great sunscreen!
Size: 2.5 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
My kids used to hate putting sunscreen on, but with this one they do it without complaining. The light green color makes it easy to see, and the roll-on design is super simple for kids to use. They actually enjoy it. It feels like they’re painting their face and body, which makes it fun. The only downside is that it leaks a little.

Good protection, easy to tell where it was applied
Size: 2.5 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
Putting sunscreen on kids can be a struggle. This product does many things well: easy to put on, no stinging eyes or coughing like there is with spray, provides good coverage, lasts a long time while sweating, and blocks sun well. But the really cool part is it goes on blue initially (dries clear/slightly white). This is helpful when my little one puts on his own sunscreen because it makes it easier to see the spots he missed (usually many) and helps ensure he fills in the gaps. Also great for the adults - I used it on vacation when I ran out of mine and it worked very well (great if you have arm hair too - not as sticky as many others)

Nice sunscreen, not very blue
Size: 2.5 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
Rolls on/spreads very nicely. Not too sticky and my toddler doesn’t mind it the way she does most other sunscreens. Seems to protect well. It’s fun “blue” color is extremely faint and the product itself is closer to cloud white than sky blue. I would imagine it would barely show up at all on darker skin tones but still not complaining as she is letting me apply it despite the absence of the ‘finger painting’ I had tried to get her excited for.
