Planting & Care
1. Planting: Lavender will perform best if planted in a full sun location (6 to 8 hours of sun) with well-draining soil.
Dig a hole large enough to accommodate the Lavender’s root ball, loosen the soil, and place the plant. Backfill the hole, lightly tamping the soil, to prevent air pockets from forming.
If you’re container-planting, select a pot that’s about two sizes larger than your shipped container. Use sandy potting mix, place your plant, and fill with the soil mix, leaving a couple of inches at the top. Give the potted plant a good drink of water and place it in front of a south-facing window or on a sunny patio spot.
2. Watering: Once your Lavender is established, it’s generally drought tolerant but does like moist soil. If you’re not sure when to water, use your index finger. Stick it into the soil and if it feels dry, add just enough water to moisten the area.
3. Fertilizing: A weekly feeding with liquid fertilizer will improve the flower color as well as encourage prolific flowering.
4. Pruning: Prune after the coldest part of winter has passed. Proper pruning will include removing dead or damaged areas and any desired shaping.
