How to grow featherleaf lavender

1. Maintenance methods

1. Temperature: Its resistance to high temperatures is relatively weak, because too high temperatures will directly stop its growth, so the temperature cannot exceed 35 degrees in summer. However, its resistance to cold is very high, and it can still grow normally at around minus 20 degrees. You can let it spend the winter outdoors.

2. Watering: It is drought-resistant, so you don't need to water it frequently. Each time you water it, you must water it thoroughly. There should be no accumulation of water in the flowerpot. In addition, you need to water the plant directly to the roots of the plant during the watering process. Do not water the leaf core of the plant, otherwise it will rot.

3. Light: It prefers soft light. Under warm light, the plant will grow more vigorously. At the same time, it cannot be exposed to strong light and needs appropriate shade.

4. Fertilization: Fertilization is required for normal growth, but not too much fertilizer. The fertilizer needs to be diluted with water before fertilization. You can apply more nitrogen fertilizer, which is conducive to flowering.

2. Breeding techniques

1. Reproduction: Cutting and division are two important methods. The former is generally carried out in spring and autumn every year. First, choose branches of about ten centimeters, then insert them, keep the environment moist, and then wait for germination. Division also needs to be carried out in spring and autumn every year. Choose three-year-old plants for division, and then replant them.

2. Pruning: Pruning is essential during the growth period. Some side branches and overgrown branches need to be cut off to ensure normal flowering. At the same time, pruning the main trunk can control the height.

3. Problem diagnosis and treatment

1. Disease: Root rot is the main disease, which is mainly caused by high temperature and excessive watering. You can spray some disinfectant solution.

2. Pests: Pests rarely occur. As long as the specific breeding methods are mastered well, pests will almost never occur.

IV. Other issues

1. Toxicity: It is not toxic. Lavender is now grown all over the country and has a very high effect in beautifying the environment.

2. Can it be raised at home? Yes, but you can open the windows to keep ventilation when raising it.
