When does lavender bloom? Lavender pictures

1. Flowering period

It usually blooms between May and October, with June to July being its peak flowering period, when the flowers are most beautiful. When the flowers first bloom, they are relatively small and difficult to spot, so their ornamental value is not high. In the later stage, the flowers will gradually become larger, the number will increase, the color will become brighter, and the ornamental price will increase. If you want to appreciate it, it is recommended to go around June.

2. Maintenance during flowering period

1. Reduce the amount of water: There is no need to excessively water during the flowering period. If the soil is too moist, it will shorten the flowering period and waterlogging will easily cause root rot. It is recommended to water only when the soil becomes dry.

2. Shade and cool down: Its peak flowering period is in summer, when the temperature is high and the light is strong. It is recommended to cool down appropriately and provide shading. It likes a cool environment. The flowers will wilt easily in high temperatures and will wither prematurely. Usually, ventilate more and water frequently to cool down. The temperature should be between 15-25 degrees.

3. Apply fertilizer in moderation: It consumes a lot of nutrients during flowering, so it should be replenished in time after flowering. You can use special foliar fertilizer as fertilizer. After diluting it, spray it on the leaves. This can replenish nutrients and prolong the flowering time.

4. Timely pruning: Prune the plants after the flowers have withered. It is best to cut the plants into hemispherical shapes, which can save nutrients to the greatest extent. In addition, if you find diseased or dead branches, you should also cut them off.
