Mediterranean Sea Lavender prefers well-drained soil and thrives on neglect. Water sparingly, allowing the soil to dry out completely between waterings.

Overwatering is the most common cause of failure, leading to root rot. Reduce watering significantly in winter.

Prune Mediterranean Sea Lavender after flowering to tidy the plant and encourage more blooms. Cut back spent flower stems to the base of the plant.

You can also trim back any straggly or overgrown foliage in early spring to maintain a compact shape.

Propagation is best achieved through seed sowing in spring or by taking basal cuttings in late spring. Seeds can be sown in a well-drained compost and kept moist and warm.

Cuttings should be taken from healthy growth and placed in a sandy, well-drained mix.

Repotting is rarely necessary for Limonium vulgare, as it prefers to be slightly pot-bound and dislikes root disturbance. If repotting is required, do so in spring, using a free-draining compost mix.

Ensure the new pot has adequate drainage holes.
