🌱 How to Grow

To Full Size
🌞 Choose a Sunny Spot: Lavender loves full sun and dry, well-drained soil.
🌱 Sow the Seeds: Surface sow and press lightly, don’t cover. Cold stratify for best germination.
💧 Water Sparingly: Once established, lavender prefers dry feet. Water only when soil is dry.
🌿 Thin and Maintain: Thin to 12–18 inches apart to allow airflow and prevent mildew.
✂️ Harvest: Snip flower spikes when buds are just beginning to open for the most fragrant oils.
