Plant history & use
White lavender is a less common color variant of the classic true lavender – a perennial herb and medicinal plant with a long tradition in both households, gardens, and folk medicine. The 'Alba' variety has pure white flower spikes and silvery-grey foliage, and is used just like the blue lavender for scent, food, and medicine.
The flowers can be dried and used in tea blends, baking, or as decoration in, for example, lavender sugar. Lavender has traditionally been used to promote relaxation, support sleep, and soothe digestion.
Cultivation
Thrives best in sunny, dry, and warm locations with well-drained soil – preferably sandy or gravelly. Lime-rich soil is a plus. 'Alba' grows somewhat shorter than blue lavender and fits nicely in borders, herb gardens, pots, or rock gardens. Prune back after flowering to maintain shape and encourage new growth.
