The Lavandua Superblue or Lavandula angustifolia Superblue, is a cold-hardy, drought-tolerant, and richly hued variety of lavender known for its deep blue-purple flowers and ease of cultivation.  

This English lavender cultivar is loved for its intense, vivid blooms, which make it a striking addition to both gardens and containers. ‘Superblue’ is highly prized for its aromatic foliage, drought tolerance, and ability to thrive in various growing conditions. As a versatile plant, it attracts pollinators and is perfect for borders, herb gardens, and rock gardens, bringing beauty and utility with its fragrant presence. 

Lavandula ‘Superblue’ is named for its exceptionally rich blue-purple flowers, which are more intense than most other lavender varieties. The Superblue lavender is native to the Mediterranean region, particularly in the rocky, sun-drenched hillsides of southern Europe. Today lavender is growing worldwide, with ‘Superblue’ flourishing in USDA hardiness zones 5-9.

One of the standout features of Lavandula ‘Superblue’ is its compact, bushy growth habit, which typically grows up to 1 foot tall and spreads about 1 foot wide. Its leaves are grayish-green, narrow, and finely textured, adding a silvery accent to its deep purple blooms.

The plant’s dense foliage creates a lush mound, making it an ideal choice for edging pathways or filling smaller garden spaces. Superblue lavender retains its neat, tidy shape with minimal pruning, adding a controlled yet vibrant touch to any landscape. 

The flowers of Lavandula ‘Superblue’ blooms in early to mid-summer and produce tall spikes of fragrant, blue-violet flowers that are highly attractive to bees, butterflies, and other pollinators. The blooms rise gracefully above the foliage, creating a visually striking contrast with the silvery-green leaves. The flowers emit a classic lavender scent, and their rich color persists throughout the bloom cycle, adding a long-lasting splash of color to garden beds and containers. 

Its flowers can be harvested and dried for use in potpourris, or sachets, bringing their calming fragrance indoors. In gardens, the plant’s fragrance can help deter pests, and its flowers attract beneficial pollinators.  

Lavender is also popular essential oil that is used in herbal medicine and aromatherapy for its soothing, stress-relieving properties. Furthermore, it’s an ideal companion plant, blending well with other drought-tolerant species like sage, rosemary, and thyme. 

When and How to Water Superblue Lavander 

The Lavandula Superblue is a drought-tolerant plant that requires minimal watering once established. This means watering the plant thoroughly when the soil is dry to a depth of about 1-2 inches. It's essential to allow the soil to dry out between waterings to prevent root rot and other issues caused by overwatering.

In the spring and summer, during the growing season, you can water the Lavandula Superblue plant approximately once every 7-10 days, depending on the weather conditions and soil drainage. It's important to adjust the watering frequency based on factors like temperature, humidity, and rainfall. During hot and dry periods, you may need to water the plant more frequently, while in cooler or rainy weather, you can reduce the watering frequency. 

In the fall and winter months, you should reduce watering to allow the plant to enter a period of dormancy. Water the plant sparingly, only when the soil is dry to the touch, about every 2-3 weeks. This reduced watering schedule helps mimic the plant's natural growth cycle and prevents waterlogging during the plant's dormant phase.

By understanding the seasonal watering needs of the Lavander Superblue plant and adjusting your watering routine accordingly, you can help promote healthy growth and ensure the plant thrives in its environment. Remember to always monitor the soil moisture levels and adapt your watering schedule based on the plant's specific requirements to maintain its overall health and vigor. 

Light Requirements – Where to Place Your Superblue Lavender 

When grown indoors it’s essential to place your superblue lavender in a location where it can receive ample bright, indirect sunlight. A south-facing window is ideal for providing the plant with the necessary sunlight it needs for healthy growth.

If a south-facing window is not available, you can supplement the light with a grow light to ensure the lavender receives adequate light exposure.

For outdoor cultivation, Lavandula Superblue plants thrive in full sunlight. These plants require at least 6-8 hours of direct sunlight daily to flourish.

Choose a spot in your garden or landscape that receives plenty of sunlight throughout the day. In regions with hot summers, providing some afternoon shade can help protect the plant from intense heat and sunburn.

Indoor Lavandula SuperBlue plants may benefit from spending time outdoors during the warmer months. If you choose to move your lavender plant outdoors, gradually acclimate it to direct sunlight to prevent sunburn. Start by placing the plant in a partially shaded area and gradually increase the exposure to full sunlight over a few days.

Optimal Soil & Fertilizer Needs

The Superblue Lavender plants prefer well-draining soil with a slightly alkaline pH level 5.9 to 6.2. A sandy or loamy soil mix with good drainage is ideal for Lavandula Superblue. You can improve soil drainage by adding perlite or coarse sand to the soil mix to prevent waterlogging, which can lead to root rot. Planet Desert has specialized potting soil, opens in a new tab that includes an organic substrate with mycorrhizae to help with the growth of a healthy root system to help your plants to thrive. 

When it comes to fertilizing Lavandula Superblue, it's important not to over-fertilize as these plants are sensitive to excess nutrients. Fertilize the plant sparingly to avoid causing damage. A balanced, NPK fertilizer formulated for flowering plants can be applied in the spring as new growth begins. Alternatively, you can use a diluted liquid fertilizer once a year during the growing season to provide your superblue lavender with essential nutrients. 

By selecting the right soil mix, ensuring proper drainage, and providing appropriate fertilization, you can help your Lavandula Superblue plant thrive and produce healthy growth and vibrant blooms. 

Hardiness Zones & More 

When growing indoors, Lavandula Superblue plants thrive bright, indirect sunlight with temperatures between 60-70°F during the day and slightly cooler temperatures at night. They prefer moderate humidity levels, around 40-50%.  

For outdoor cultivation, Superblue lavender plants are typically suited for USDA zones 5-9. They require full sunlight exposure, receiving at least 6-8 hours of direct sunlight daily for optimal growth and blooming.

They prefer temperatures ranging from 70-90°F during the day and slightly cooler temperatures at night. Lavender plants thrive in low to moderate humidity levels, around 30-40%.

According to ASPCA, the SuperBlue lavender plants are considered mildly toxic to pets These compounds aren’t harmful to humans when used in culinary amounts, but consuming excessive amounts could lead to mild digestive discomfort. In recipes, lavender is safe in small amounts and is used for its pleasant floral taste.

How to Propagate Superblue Lavender 

The Superblue lavender can be propagated through stem cuttings. To do this, select a healthy stem and cut it just below a leaf node. Dip the cut end in rooting hormone before planting it in well-draining soil. Keep the cutting moist and in a warm, sunny location to encourage root growth. After a few weeks, roots should begin to form and the cutting can be transplanted into their own pot or garden bed. Remember to water regularly and provide adequate sunlight for optimal growth.

Very firm pillow
Size: Queen (Mid Loft), Number of Items: 1
I'm not sure I received the same pillow as advertised. The pillows I received are extremely firm. I would not classify it as medium. It was also not covered by a cotton case. it had a very sheer gauze like material covering the latex.

Super springy and comfy!
Size: Queen (Mid Loft), Number of Items: 1, Size: Queen (Mid Loft), Number of Items: 1
I’ve been looking for a pillow that offers support but is soft and cushy. I had never tried a latex pillow before, and I was skeptical because I heard it could be hard, but I decided to give it a try. I tried a memory foam and it was waaaaay too hard to be comfortable. This pillow retains its shape, is really soft and plushy, and works great for back or side sleeping. It had a slight smell (not unpleasant though) when we first unboxed it, but it was gone by day 2. The pillow also sprang up immediately on unwrapping it. After a few days it seemed a little bit bigger, but it didn’t really need any time to air out/fluff up, it was basically ready straight out of the box. I’m often picky about pillows because I get headaches from sleeping on my neck in the wrong way, but this one is great and I haven’t had a problem at all. My hubby likes it too :) it’s the favorite house pillow now.

Coop Home Goods Eden Bed Pillow Queen Size
Team Name: Eden, Size: Queen, Color: Classic
I am very satisfied with the Coop Eden Bed Pillow. It is clearly a high-quality product that is well worth the investment. Here are a few reasons why I highly recommend it: Fast Shipping & Great Packaging: The pillow arrived very quickly. It was packed beautifully in a box that was both aesthetic and very functional. Initial Scent , There was a slight 'new pillow' scent upon opening, which is totally normal. I let it air out for a few hours and it was completely gone. Fully Customizable Comfort: The pillow itself is incredibly comfortable and looks great. The best part is the ability to add or remove fill to reach your exact preferred loft. It even comes with an extra bag of fill, so you can make it firmer or softer depending on your needs. Being able to determine the exact volume is a game-changer. Easy Maintenance: It comes with a lovely outer cover that is removable and washable, which is a fantastic and practical feature. Overall, you can really feel the quality of this pillow. If you are looking for a customizable, premium sleeping experience, this is definitely the one to get!

Amazing pillow - adjustable filling
Team Name: Eden, Size: King, Color: Crescent
This pillow is AMAZING. My wife loves it. The crescent shape is cool and unique and enables your neck, back, and shoulders to lay better on the bed. My wife is a back sleeper and sometimes side sleeper. What’s amazing about this is you can adjust the quantity of the filling to your preference. It came with an extra bag if you want to fill it with more. We ended up taking a fair bit out. The card it comes with was super helpful illustrating how your head should rest on it, which showed my wife she had to take some out for her neck to be flatter. It seemed too firm at first so taking out the filling helped. The material inside is super fluffy, light, and airy- it’s extremely soft! As soft as down or other material. I mean this is an amazing pillow. It is luscious and super comfy. It is expensive but worth it.

I can't sleep without this pillow.
Team Name: Eden, Size: King, Color: Classic
This review is for the King size, adjustable Eden pillow. I bought the original years ago and somehow lost it when I moved recently, so I bought the Eden to replace it. Years ago, these pillows were not adjustable but I loved it anyway and was truly upset when I discovered it was missing. I actually lost sleep over it. When I found out they're adjustable now, I about lost my mind over the possibilities. In fact, I love the adjustable, Eden version so much that I bought another one. So yeah, I have purchased this pillow 3 times and have not been happier with any other pillow. Bad news first. The odor. You should know that they claim the foam is packed "fresh." This means there WILL be an odor when you receive it because it hasn't had the opportunity to air out. You'll have to do that yourself. Maybe they'll find a way in the future to "pre-air" the foam they use. For now, just accept that it's WORTH THE WAIT and really not a big deal. Don't return your pillow just because of the odor. It WILL go away and you don't want to miss out on this fantastic pillow. They suggest letting it sit for 24 hours or throw it in the dryer. Neither of these methods are long enough, in my opinion, but please be patient. I have experience with 3 of these pillows now and tried different techniques. This is what works best for me: Upon arrival, I immediately remove the outer pillowcase and set aside. Over the course of 48 hours, I let it sit on the bed in my guest room with the ceiling fan on and I "fluff" it 3 or 4 times each day. (I will describe proper fluffing technique for shredded foam later) Then I throw it in the dryer on low for a full cycle. Then put the case back on and it's done! You'll never have to worry about that again and soon you won't even remember having to do it. Now that THAT'S out of the way... I love that these pillows are adjustable now. They really packed in the foam on the king size! I'm not kidding. There was so much foam in my pillows that they, frankly, were too heavy and way too firm for me. I've seen some negative reviews to the contrary. Maybe since then, they've increased the amount of foam they include (they should keep that up, if that's what happened). That's not how I like my pillows but some folks might be into that so I'm glad they put enough in there for those who need a lot of support. They do include 1/2 pound of extra foam in case you want a true, solid-as-a-rock feel. I do not. I'm a stomach and side sleeper, who likes more "squish" to my pillows, so I ended up removing so much foam from my 2 king size pillows that I have enough to make 2 standard sizes with the same squish factor. Not kidding. I went to the Coop website and purchased 2 standard liners and cases that I'm going to stuff with the excess foam and use on my guest bed. I anticipate some of my guests asking where I got the awesome pillows. :) As we all know, memory foam holds heat too well and some foams will kick you right out of bed because you just can't stand to be that hot anymore. I did experience heat retention in the "original" that I had for years. I flipped the pillow over to get the cool side. I assumed all memory foam was like that so I put up with it. I don't get that at all with the Eden version. I'm a hot sleeper but I haven't had any issue with the Eden at all. The Eden has the blue foam in it that's gel-infused. I don't use anything extra or fancy to keep them cool. The foam is in the provided liners and pillowcases and I cover those with normal, cotton pillowcases. I did see a couple reviews that claim their pillows went flat after a while. I'm confused by this. I had my first pillow for years and never experienced any change in texture. As with ANY shredded memory foam pillow, they need to be "fluffed" every now and then. In fact I fluff all of my pillows occasionally, regardless of the stuffing used (I have a variety of textures on my bed). But regardless, shredded memory foam pillows don't go flat. It's just not a thing. If you feel like it's flat, fluff it. Get rough with it. The shapes of the shreds can, over time, start to fit together like puzzle pieces and can become compact in some areas in the pillow. Maybe this is what creates the illusion that it's flat? "Fluffing" a shredded foam pillow involves breaking all the pieces up so they can move independently again. To achieve this, you have to grab several areas of the pillow with both hands so you have clumps of foam in your hands and then sort of jostle everything around in there, breaking up all the chunks. I usually grab and use the same motion I would use to bang cymbals together and then repeat all over the pillow until it feels like everything is separated again. I find this technique to be most effective when I grab around the edges. This takes only 5-8 seconds to accomplish and is completely normal maintenance for a shredded foam pillow. Final thought: Shredded memory foam pillows are not for everyone because comfort is subjective. We all sleep differently and have different needs. After reading through some of the negative reviews, I've determined that some of them HAD to have been left by people who have never used a shredded foam pillow before and have determined it's not for them. COOP has a generous 100 night, no questions asked refund policy, so it doesn't hurt to try it. I don't view those reviews as a poor reflection of this company's products, but rather that the consumer tried something once and decided shredded foam pillows are not for them. I do have some experience with shredded foam pillows and can tell you that the Eden is, hands down, the best and highest quality that I've found on the market.
