How to grow featherleaf lavender

1. Rizhao

This plant with small tubular flowers is a very sun-loving variety. It is best to be exposed to sunlight all day, but in the hot summer, shade is also needed, so this needs to be noted. Because when the temperature reaches a certain level in summer, this plant will begin to hibernate.

2. Watering

Featherleaf lavender does not like a humid environment, so you need to be extra careful when watering it and make sure to maintain the proper level of dryness and wetness in the potting soil. If it is allowed to stay in an overly waterlogged environment, it may cause root rot and eventually cause the plant to die. In addition, when watering, it is best to be careful not to pour water on the plants, as this may cause damage to the plants.

3. Ventilation

Flowers and plants that do not like moisture need to be ventilated in time if you want them to be healthy. There are many benefits to doing this. On the one hand, it can reduce the probability of diseases and pests. On the other hand, it can prevent the soil from being too wet, which is more suitable for the growth of the flowers.

4. Fertilization

It is best to buy base fertilizer when repotting to ensure sufficient nutrients. When fertilizing, avoid using concentrated fertilizers. It is best to dilute them before fertilizing. After the plants grow, it is recommended to use flower fertilizers with a higher phosphorus content to help them bloom and grow better.

5. Temperature

This plant actually does not have high requirements for temperature, and it can adapt to normal weather temperatures. However, when the temperature is above 35 degrees Celsius, you have to find a way to cool it down. In winter, it can survive safely at temperatures above minus 20 degrees Celsius. It is resistant to high temperatures and can tolerate low temperatures.

6. Soil

This flower originally grows in sandy soil with a slightly alkaline soil. Therefore, when choosing soil for maintenance, we should try to choose this kind of potting soil with better drainage. In fact, you can try to use vermiculite, peat soil and perlite to reasonably match and mix the soil as flower soil. The featherleaf lavender grown in this way will be very good!

7. Pruning

When pruning this plant, be careful not to cut into the woody areas.
