Loves Full Sun

Lavender needs at least 6 hours of sunlight daily. Choose the sunniest spot you have

Well-Draining Soil

Use sandy or gritty soil that drains quickly. Wet soil can harm lavender roots.

Water Lightly

Water only when the top soil is dry. Lavender is drought-tolerant and dislikes soggy soil.

Prune After Blooming

Trim the plant after flowers fade to keep it neat and encourage more blooms.

Use Clay or Terracotta Pots

If growing in a pot, use one with drainage holes and choose clay for better airflow.

No Humid Areas

Lavender prefers dry air. Keep it away from bathrooms or overly damp rooms.

Feed Once a Year

Use a small amount of compost or a slow-release fertilizer in early spring.
