I know you posted this a year ago, but I recently moved into zone 7, and I'm impressed with how much I learned about planting English Lavender into a container by watching the first 2 minutes into your video, you are straight to the point! Thank you!
I appreciate your explanation for why to trim the lavender plant in the summer and fall!
Thanks Julie, it's a big help
I love watching your videos! Thank you very much for all of the information. Greetings from London!:)))
I usually just cut the bottom inch off if my plants get root bound. Seems to help the plant
Oooff just found the video that I need lol. Thank you!
Where do you put them during the winter? Do you bring the pots indoors? I live in Ohio. All of my plants are in the ground, if I plant some in containers, will I have to bring indoors in winter?
Fantastic thank you! I just got into gardening and English Lavender is one of my first plants.
Fantastic lesson. Thanks a bunch 💐
I’ve noticed the weed cloth in lavender farm videos …..is it necessary if I have 14 plants in my flower bed? What the rationale, other than keeping weeds out?
I just found your channel and thanks for the tips I just planted a Spanish lavender plant from my nursery for the first time in a pot so I hope it blooms well . I subscribed!
Thank you for tip on cutting back flowers in 1st year to strengthen root system! Could be a key reason why my lavenders dies here in Las Vegas. 💜
what type of lavender do you see in Provence. where the fields are big mounds of purple color and almost touch each other
I live in zone 4B (South Dakota) so lavender is an annual here. If I trim it back after planting I’m not sure I’ll have enough growth time for blooms. I have overwintered a Spanish lavender successfully so will be trimming it back just a bit. Thanks!!
I love learning from you. Thank you.
What place and zone are you at? I am from Denver Colorado and so hot and dry , I think I need 3 times water for my newly planted munstead.
I loved!!!
thanks for the tips......I had heard you should cut back some of the growth and any flowers when transplanting to givet the roots a better chance at rooting and less energy on flowering???

ooooops, sorry, just saw the answer later in the video
Gracis, muy informativo
We gotta get you some nice knee pads; we can't have you putting all that pressure on your knees on those rocks. We've only got one pair of knees :)
What kind of sand? Is this type of mix good for potted lavender? Spanish lavender?
Don't forget to wear a mask over your nose and mouth when mixing perlite in.
i'm Growing french lavender in terracotta pots full sun but wondering if for the rainy winter I should move them under a bit of roof cover so they won't be soaked all winter. I'm in Seattle area. Thanks for your videos.

For sure. That is what I do with mine.
I live in the desert in New Mexico, 🇺🇸. The sun is raging in the summertime 90-100 degrees from 10 am to 6 pm. Is that TOO much sun and heat? I bought a lavender that was yellowing. Other than that it looks great, it's very full. What do I do for it? On top #4 clipping/pinching the buds off. Do you think that will work for salvias and catmint too?

I have same problem in Las Vegas, NV. Julie's tip of trimming off flowers in 1st year, I think, is what I have to do. There are lavender farms there in NM. I visited Los Poblanos in ABQ. Maybe they can help you. 💜
I wish I had viewed your video last year. I planted five bunches of lavender in my backyard and it looked fine for the season. I didn’t cut them until mid April about one third of the length. I watered them twice a day lightly but nothing had happened. The color still brown others plant in my garden already turned green and blooming. I wonder if I done something wrong. I wish I could send you the photo.

What kind of commercial grade weed cloth are you using?

Not sure of the brand but it has a 20 year lifespan. It’s dark thick and has green measurements lines woven in. It can be ordered up to 12 foot widths. I prefer 3 ft width and got my last few rolls at my local feed and seed store.
Can a plant in full bloom but splayed by being watering overhead recover? Should I trim it to trim to an inch above the woody stem?

I had about 60 English lavenders split like this after several days of hard rain. They looked like giant birds nests. I trimmed them back as usual in the fall. It took about three years for the center to fill back in.
