  • Take a bit of time now to ensure your perennial lavender plants are ready for spring! This iconic plant is a must-have for so many gardens. Known for its phenomenal scent and amazing color, lavender also comes into play with many DIY crafts too.
    Sweet Romance is a favorite for many because of its ability to bloom the first year. Additionally, it begins to flower a bit earlier in the season, typically in early summer and lasting into early fall. It is a compact plant, with a tight habit which also makes this a beautiful addition to your landscape!

    After years of trying to grow lavender I managed to germinate some seeds and get them to grow. I planted 1 plant in particular the garden and it did fairly well last season. This spring I cut back all the dead shoots until it was just a woody ball of small shoots. A few weeks later and my lavender is a vigorous ball of green with what looks like a very promising season ahead.

    I totally agree with the comments below. You explain things so well and your demonstrations are so clear that every time I watch one of your videos I learn so much. I am perhaps a notch above a beginner gardener. This year my husband and I have become more serious about taking care of our garden and making things grow better and healthier. I have watched several of your videos and I love them because they are concise and full of information. I also like how you show the way you do the work but fast forward the video. I have watched many other videos and some of them are so long and most of it is just talking with not a lot of valuable information and then they show the process which is slow and time consuming. I finally subscribed (my first subscription on UA-cam ever) because I see that you give useful information. Thank you so very much for the education!

    Its important to remember that your location affects your lavender. I live in Canada. 🇨🇦 If I pruned my lavender that hard in the fall as she suggests, it would die over the winter. A hard spring pruning wouldn’t give it time enough to grow back. But I’m definitely going to try a modified version of this.

    This was an informative and helpful video. Something that has surprised me about lavender in the Spring is that green growth actually returns to those dead branches likes you were removing. Feverfew is also like this. The stems look completely dead, and when I go out in the Spring to trim them back, I end up cutting much less because of the green filling in.

    Is the pruning you do every year -like around Fall- the thing I can do to avoid my lavender to get opened up in the middle of the plant with the weight of the snow that falls in Winter? I have that same problem with the rosemary and the sage...
