There's a key difference to growing great lavender in a pot or container: to be successful, you need to pay far more attention to watering. Once established in the landscape, lavender is drought tolerant. However, it relies on an extensive root system to pull moisture from the soil. In a pot, the "reservoir" of soil is far more limited. I also discuss how to prune lavender in the plug/productions stages as well as for a mature plants.

Thank you for the information! They are such a resilient and begginer friendly plant. I had one get run over by an SUV three times last year and thought it was a goner (only three twigs left and the center was barren). It's flushing out new growth and looking full now.

I do plant my lavender in Thailand, starting in December last year. There is no plant shop over here selling lavender, so I have to start it from seed. I follow your planting advises and suggestions and the plants grow resonably good, thank you very much. However, what I notice here is that, as Thailand is in tropical zone - hot and very humid, the perlite and peat moss mixed media seems to hold to much moisture. Even I mix half of that mixed media with course sand, I still. have to water once every 2 days. By the ways, all my lavenders are still in 6 inch pots and average hight of about 7 inchs. A month ago, I did cut them back as you suggest in previous video ,and use the cut off branches for cutting propragation. Somehow, I did have heat problem with my cutting propagation, it is full summer time here now with the average temperature is around 85-100F, the cutting is in need of a close attention otherwise it will wilt or rot.

I bought a one gallon pot of lavender, kept it watered, planted in full sun off my deck. I have sandy soil, it kept wilting, we’ve had days in 90’s with 101 heat index. Two days ago I dug it up bc it appeared to be dying, putting it in a good sized pot& placing in area where it gets mostly morning sun & late evening sun. I really hope it survives.

Many years back I had several lavender plants in pots, I really enjoyed them, I moved them into larger pots too. I wanted the soil to drain as fast as possible and beyond what was included in the original pot I added perlite, pebbles, sand, and a small handful of peat moss for some water retention/aeration. Maybe 25% of each (thought the perlite tended to float to the top after watering in the long term). It worked very well for them, I live on Gulf Coast of Mississippi, humid but hot. Put them on a cement slab cover for the septic tank and they took off. As for watering what worked for me was picking them up, I kinda had a good idea of their weight after watering, and due to the fairly light soil once it dried out a bit the pots lost noticeable weight. I used the weight to determine when it was time to water. I was pretty proud of those plants, sadly I had needed to move after about a year of having them. I couldn't take them all with me, it was a very long drive (16 hours) to Iowa. I was able to bring 1 and sadly it really did not like the move, it was inside the truck the whole time but I think that going from high 80's and mostly full sun to high 50's during fall caused the plant to slowly die off.

Planning to have it indoors in a pot this winter, but hoping that i can put a bunch outside and have them come back next spring. My seed pouch says its "perennial in zone 6" though, and we are zone 5.

A specialty lavender farm in the Loess Hils of Council Bluffs, IA lost their entire crop over the winter several times with the older varieties. Suggest you try newer vegetative cultivars for success in our climate.

I have a big lavender plant that I've had a good 3 or 4 years and I should of trimmed it right down not half the way down to bush it out do I have enough time now to bush it out a little now it's growing? I'm in the UK and had a rough may was full of almost every night heavy frosts so every thing is slower to grow this year think we are 3 weeks behind. We are getting warmer nights now and the plants are loving it. I mostly cantanor grow but growing alot more this year

My Spanish lavender topiaries did not make it. Two of them died out on the patio , and then one of them made it over winter until early spring, but then it suddenly died. I was so confused as to why it happened, but today something happened that made the lightbulb go off. I think my poor plant must have been stressed all the time! I was always too afraid to give it a good drench, and the leaves always looked silvery grey as a result. My plants never wilted like you show, but they were a silvery green color. I thought that this was just the normal color of lavender as many describe it as a silvery green. However, I recently purchased a couple of English Lavender, and they were silvery green, but they were very dry in the pots, so I knew they needed water. I gave a good drench to one of the pots, then set it aside for a few minutes. I saw a video once that says to let it sit for 10 minutes then water it some more to make sure all the soil in the pot gets water, because even when it's first coming out of the bottom, there can still be dry soil inside the pot. I left the other pot and sat down to watch a few videos to try to make sure that I was understanding properly, since my last Spanish Lavenders did not survive. I was a little frustrated because though it is said that they turn " a bit grey" when they need water, in addition to the wilt or droop, no one ever shows the difference between a well watered lavender and a thirsty one. BUT... when I went back to give the first pot a bit more water, I saw a difference in color that was immediately noticeable. The lavender that had just been given plenty of water turned more green and less silvery in color, while the one that was still dry was silvery green! There was NO wilt on either of these plants when they were dry, except maybe one flower was a tiny bit droopy at the very top. The leaves did not droop at all that I could notice. But the color difference was so clear. Finally I know what to look for!

Thanks for that info. I needed it. I want to grow a lot more lavendar around my property. My 2 big clumps have done well over a decade, but I never really knew just what I should be doing. I watched a documentary once that researchers had learned during the black plague centuries ago, a particular town in France the people did not get sick, they found it was the fleas causing the sickness, and the town's occupation was raising lavender...fields of lavender. They found the fleas do not like lavender.Not one person in that town got sick. Aside from just loving the aroma and the beauty, I am trying to really expand my gardens with lavender. Also all the varieties of lavender attract lots of different honey bees which are so beneficial. And with bee populations dwindling I like that I can help the bees too. Next I want to learn the best companions for the lavender in the gardens. Would have any suggestions ?

Greetings! Thank you for your time and expertise. I have a french rose that smells so heavenly and want to keep it happy and alive. My problem is it has a lot of bare stalks. I'm scared to do anything with it that it may die. What is the best thing I can do for the roses? Thank you in advance for your help. India

You can't be too afraid to prune - it will help to keep your rose in good condition over time.

Hi, can you do a video on how you plant your lavender in your clay soil? I think you were planning on doing a hedge? Thanks!

Thanks. The plans are on hold - my parents need a place to garden, so we're donating them the spot where the lavender would have gone in. We're replanning now about where we'll use the lavender (or sell it)

I'm in zone 7b and my flowers have bloomed and are dying out and the leaves are light green with some brown so should I cut it back right now it's really hot here IN GA and this was my first successful season since I bought it last year that it flowered 😁. What do I do with the buds since the flowers are gone. I have the Spanish lavender and I love the smell of lavender so I would love to use it around the house.

I'd definitely trim off the spent stems to encourage a new flush of growth and hopefully a quick return to flowering. I hope you enjoy the stems around the house for so long as they remain fragrant!

Considering your advice to keep the plants pruned back, what spacing would you recommend for a Dwarf Munstead type? (If you want a continuous row without large gaps.) (BTW, I wish I had seen this video two weeks ago when I set out my lavender. I think I fried it. Back to the drawing board...)

18" plant spacing with a 2 or 3' row spacing. Sorry to hear about your "false start"!

I live in Canada too - lots of different climates. Some lavender varieties are hardy to zone 5, so would be fine in many places.

How far apart to plant each one? I have like 6 seedlings coming up in the same pot. Do they each need their own pot?

This is amazing my lavender starting to grow about three weeks now (from seed) mostly of them died but three sprouted but the two of them died suddenly.. now i only have one. I started misting and avoid direct sunlight.. it has now four leaves which im very excited but has brown spot on them.. is it bad to have brown spot?

A little bit of discoloration shouldn't worry you - if the seedling is growing well, it'll grow right through it.

Do I need to put compost, mulch, fertilizer in my potted lavender? It was getting too packed with water in the store bought potting mix. So I adjusted the mix to be equal amounts of perlite, peat moss, and potting soil. Should I do anything differently? Thank you for your help.

I received this potted lavender as a gift. I think I have a French lavender. I live in FL. The stems are very long and the ends still have a little of the flower open. How do I know when the flowering period is over and I should trim back. Some of the fronds are 40 inches long!

Hi Cheryl. I'd go with the bloom period being over when you say so! If they're long and there's not much color, go ahead and cut them back.

I transplanted starter plants from a nursery into big pots (16in) about a week ago. A few of them have just one flower shoot. Should I prune them now or wait until summer? They’re probably about 3-4 inches tall right now.

Hi Michelle. A little top prune for branching is always a benefit to a young plant in my experience.

Thank you, very good points! Does the same rule sort of speak applies to rosemary? To cut it back to 6- 9 inches?

Yes - to keep the plant refreshing itself from the base.

@@FraserValleyRoseFarm thanks so much! That's where I messed up and now it's big and woodsy and if I prune it doesn't do anything. I need to take some cuttings and start over. Have a blessed day! I enjoy your practical videos! 🤗

Yes. A larger pot is best for consistent water and nutrients.
