Love the lavenders so much. I have yet to find a cultivar that will survive winter freezes here in my zone 5 garden--doesn't stop me!! I love those Spanish lavenders with the flags on top. I thought rosemary was a similar plant--woody stem, sunny dry location, etc....not a survivor here either! I love the flavor of lavender, too.
I found out this summer that praying mantises also love lavender. While the lavender was blooming I enjoyed visiting my little pal for about a month. Saw a mantis again a couple of weeks ago in an aster. Could have been the same one. It may have been moving about the yard to wherever it was finding the most food. Nancy in Nevada
@@desecheo Yes, they are figs. That one is the hardest and most productive of all my varieties. I got it as a cutting that was a gift from a friend, so I am not sure of the variety. I am assuming it's a Brown Turkey.
Idk if you watch Laura from garden answer. She has cut her lavender almost to the ground every year to avoid them getting woody. I thought that was interesting.
Hi, I live in India where the temperatures never go below 15° Celcius and the summers are super hot with day time temperatures touching 45°Celcius. Will lavender grow in such conditions?
@@meenakshirao6460 Thank you for watching my video! Lavender does not mind the heat, so that shouldn't be a problem. As long as you have a spot that has good drainage, where it won't ever get waterlogged, it should do fine where you are. They also don't like high humidity.
