Pollination and Ripening

Blooms typically appear in late spring through summer, with established plants flowering more heavily each year. Lavender reaches maturity quickly, often producing strong blooms within the first one to two growing seasons.

Planting Guide

Planting Guide for Lavender

1. Site Selection

Lavender thrives in sunny, open locations with excellent air circulation. It prefers:

• Light Requirements: Full sun (6–8 hours daily).

• Airflow: Open spaces reduce humidity around foliage and prevent disease.

• Drainage: Poor drainage is the most common cause of lavender failure.

2. Spacing

• Spacing Needs:

◦ Compact varieties: 12–18 inches apart

◦ Larger varieties: 18–24 inches apart

• Proper spacing allows airflow and prevents root rot.

3. Soil Type

Lavender prefers:

• Fast-draining Soil: Sandy or gravelly soils are ideal.

• Neutral to Slightly Alkaline pH: Lavender does not require acidic soil.

• Minimal Amendments: Avoid rich composts or manure.

4. Planting Lavender

  1. Dig the Hole: Slightly wider than the root ball and no deeper than the container.
  2. Improve Drainage: Add sand or gravel if soil is heavy.
  3. Planting Depth: Keep the crown level with soil surface.
  4. Water Lightly: Water once after planting, then allow soil to dry slightly between watering.

5. Watering

• Establishment Period: Water regularly during the first growing season.

• Once Established: Lavender is drought tolerant and prefers infrequent watering.

6. Fertilizing

• Fertilizer Needs: Minimal. Excess fertilizer reduces fragrance and flower production.

• Best Practice: Skip fertilizing unless soil is extremely poor.

7. Pruning

• Timing: Light pruning after flowering and again in early spring.

• Purpose: Encourages bushy growth and prevents woody stems.
