Growing Information

Planting

  • Start seeds indoors and allow 100+ days to maturity, giving the plants ample time to establish before their first bloom cycle.
  • Sow seeds on the soil surface and lightly press them in, as lavender requires light exposure for germination.
  • Transplant seedlings into full sun once danger of frost has passed, spacing plants 20–24 inches apart.
  • Choose locations with excellent drainage and avoid areas with standing water to protect the crown.
  • Containers should include a gritty, well-draining soil mix to mimic lavender’s preferred conditions.
  • Water sparingly, especially during early growth, to encourage strong root development.

Maintenance

  • Hidcote Lavender prefers well-drained, low-fertility soil and benefits from minimal watering once established.
  • Light annual pruning after flowering helps maintain its compact form and encourages branching.
  • Mulching with small gravel improves drainage around the crown and prevents moisture buildup.
  • This perennial is naturally resilient, tolerates drought, and attracts a wide range of pollinators.
  • Remove spent flower spikes to keep the plant tidy and stimulate additional bloom production.

Harvest & Storage

  • Flower spikes can be harvested once they are fully colored but before the buds begin to open for the strongest fragrance.
  • Cut stems early in the day and allow them to dry in bunches hung upside down in a cool, shaded location.
  • Dried lavender retains its scent well and can be stored in airtight containers for long-term use.
  • Plants reach a mature height of about 20–24 inches with a spread of roughly 20–24 inches.
  • Regular harvesting encourages fresh flushes of bloom throughout the season.
