Identifiable from their unusual shapes and pinkish hue on the fringe of their compact foliage. Its perennial succulent with upright flowering stems which bloom into beautiful large flowers. Light and Water It’s a relatively easy succulent to grow as a houseplant with one need. The plant needs lots of strong sunlight (preferably full sun), whether grown indoors or outside, especially during the summer. So, place in a bright room with filtered light and ample airflow. When repotting, provide porous soil with adequate drainage, pots with drainage hole are recommended. Water thoroughly when soil is dry to the touch. Water the plant infrequently. It’s easy to overwater this plant. Allow the soil to dry out between watering. As with all succulents, never let them sit in water and do not water on the leaves. If you water from beneath by letting the plant sit in a saucer of water, make sure to pour off any excess water after a few minutes. The hotter it is outside, the faster your soil will dry out, so you’ll need to water more often if you live in a hot area. Water with caution in winter, as the plant can lose its roots if the soil stays cold and wet for extended periods. Feeding helps encourage thicker, healthier growth. Feed the plant bi-weekly with a liquid fertilizer throughout the summer months. During the winter, stop feeding the plant. The plant also requires less water during the winter.
Lavender plants are wonderfully coloured and smelling herb suitable for outdoor gardens. Keep it in a well-lit place with plenty of sunshine. They also have the benefit of being very bee friendly. They contain a lot nectar and more importantly flower at the midsummer gap where other flowering plants are absent. Providing a vital food source for large colonies. When it comes to repotting or planting in your garden, the most important factor is to use a well-drained limey soil (alkaline) and little or no fertilizer. Problems usually arise because the soil is unhealthy. Lavender likes heat, and many varieties won't survive a cold winter. You can consider placing them in a larger well-draining pot (like a terracotta pot) and moving them indoors during the winter, placing them near a well-lit window. Pruning is necessary to extend the life of the plant. Trim lightly in autumn immediately after flowering and in mid spring cut back straggly plants to promote bushy new growth. Cut back to about a third of the grey-leaved stems. Lavenders that are not pruned tend to become woody in the centre. Water them sparingly. Allow the soil to dry out between watering, but don't let it get so dry that the plant wilts. A lot of this depends on the size of the plant and current temperature, so in the summer, weekly checking is recommended to assess the water level in the soil.
