Water regularly during the first year to establish roots. Once established, lavender is drought-tolerant and requires infrequent watering, especially in hot, dry climates.

Prune in early spring to shape the plant and remove any dead or damaged wood. A harder prune after flowering can encourage a second bloom and maintain a compact form. Avoid cutting into old wood.

Easily propagated from semi-hardwood cuttings taken in late spring or early summer. Seeds can be sown in spring, but germination can be slow and variable. Division of established clumps is also possible.

If grown in pots, repot every 2-3 years into a slightly larger container with fresh, well-draining potting mix. Ensure the new pot has adequate drainage holes to prevent waterlogging.
