Guía de cuidados

Plant in full sun in light, well-drained soil. The plant is less hardy than common lavender and needs protection in severe frost. Water very sparingly — wet soil is fatal. In colder regions, consider growing in a pot for winter shelter.

Consejos de poda

Lightly prune after each flowering flush to encourage new buds. Carry out a more thorough prune in spring, cutting back a third of the plant. Never cut into bare wood — it will not recover.
