Position

Full sun is best as Lavender loves warm, dry afternoon heat but can handle a little shade. It’s not a fan of humidity but will grow in cool areas. Some Lavender can handle frost. It works well in pots.

Watering

They don’t like wet feet, so don’t over water. Once established, they are drought-resistant.

Care

One of the biggest problems is overwatering, so placing a little sand at the bottom of the pot or whole can help. Alkaline soil is also important.
