Lavandula x Intermedia ‘Riverina Thomas’ Lavender

Riverina Thomas is an absolute Rockstar intermedia lavender, and is raved about by all who grow it! We specifically chose to add both Riverina Thomas and Riverina Alan, as they have been unofficially referred to as the “Hardy Brothers” for their resilience to frigid cold conditions and their resilience to the yo-yo temperature swings that can seen throughout the Midwest Regions. Upon researching, it was absolutely apparent all of the other reasons why it’s a Rockstar! Riverina Thomas is a vigorous and dependable grower, with sturdy long stems, show stopping deep purple flowers and extended bloom time. It retains both it’s color and buds once dried, and is fantastic for long stemmed bouquets and wreath making too! It’s an outstanding producer of some of the highest quality intermedia essential oil due to it’s lower camphor content with tests showing even higher essential oil yields vs. other intermedias. All around workhorse, vigorous growing intermedia, that would be a fantastic choice when considering a new field.
