Guía de cuidados

Plant in full sun in well-drained soil. Water sparingly — lavender dislikes wet feet. Apply a light lime dressing in spring. Protect young plants during their first winter with a layer of mulch.

Consejos de poda

Prune immediately after flowering in August by cutting back the flower stems and the top third of the foliage. Never cut into old wood — it will not regrow. A second light trim in spring keeps the plant compact.
