When does lavender bloom? How many days does lavender bloom?

1. Flowering time

Lavender usually blooms in summer, from June to August. If the temperature is suitable, flowers will bloom in May. June and July are the peak flowering period. The flowers are basically withered in September, and only a few can last until October. It usually blooms in the same year it is planted, and it usually takes 18-20 weeks from sowing to flowering.

2. How to grow flowers

1. Increase light: The growth of lavender cannot be separated from sufficient light. The longer the light time, the more helpful it is for the differentiation of flower buds. At the same time, it can also allow it to photosynthesize better and accumulate more nutrients. It usually needs to be planted in a sunny place, and indoor potted plants can be placed on the balcony so that it can receive light.

2. Control the temperature: Lavender grows well in a warm environment and grows well at a temperature of 15-25℃. If the temperature is too high, the leaves will turn yellow, and if it is too low, it will go dormant. Generally, it should be placed in a warm place, especially after the buds appear, which can also promote flowering.

3. Reduce watering: Lavender itself does not require much water, and too much water will affect its growth. Although an environment with sufficient water helps the development of the plant, it is not conducive to flowering. If you want it to transfer nutrients from growth to flowering, you need to control watering and extend the watering intervals.

4. Supplement fertilizer: Any plant needs certain nutrients to bloom, and lavender is no exception. Before flowering, appropriate fertilization can promote flowering. Generally, phosphorus and potassium fertilizers are used. If nitrogen fertilizers are applied, it will cause the plants to grow too tall and inhibit flowering.
