When does lavender bloom?

1. Flowering time

It usually blooms from June to August. If it is grown in a cooler location during the summer, it will produce many flowers, and if it is well cared for, the flowering period will be even longer.

2. Maintenance during flowering period

It likes cool places and the soil in the pot should be dry, so don't water it too much. The specific watering time can be determined according to the dryness of the potting soil. Water it if it is dry, and don't water it if it is not dry. When watering, be careful not to pour water on the leaves to avoid diseases.

2. Adequate lighting

It likes to enjoy the light, which allows it to grow better, so try to keep it in a place with sufficient light, but not in direct sunlight.

It can not only withstand low temperatures but also high temperatures, but not exceeding 40 degrees. The most suitable growth temperature is generally between 26 and 32 degrees.

4. Add fertilizer

Many plants cannot be fertilized during the flowering period, but lavender can. Phosphorus and potassium fertilizers can be applied to it during flowering to increase the amount of flowering and supplement nutrition, but nitrogen fertilizers cannot be applied to prevent the plant from growing too tall.

5. Pruning branches

During its flowering period, its branches should be properly pruned, mainly cutting off those branches that grow poorly and produce few flowers, so that other thick branches can obtain more nutrients and produce more flowers.
