Lavandula (Lavender) Growing Tips
  • Plant in a well-drained soil that has been enriched with organic matter or already has an
    adequate amount of organic matter.
  • Before planting make sure the pH of your soil is within a 6.0-8.0 for optimum growth
    and flowering.
  • Always plant lavender plants in full sun.  Plants do not fare well in partial or full shade.
  • If planting in containers make sure to add sand to the planting medium to aid in drainage.
  • Mulch to help with overwintering and to provide a more consistent soil moisture.
