Care tips

Put the plant in a sunny spot, where it gets direct sunlight for at least 6 hours a day. Water only when the top layer of the soil is dry, as lavender does not like too much moisture.

Prune the plant after flowering (summer or fall), removing a third of the plant without affecting the green parts. This helps keep the plant compact and encourages new growth. In winter, protection from cold is important, so cover the roots with mulch and make sure the plant is not in too wet soil.

If you have lavender in a pot, repot it every few years in fresh, well-drained soil. With this care, you can enjoy a healthy, thriving Lavandula angustifolia ‘Jane Improved’ .

With this care, your Lavandula angustifolia ‘Jane Improved’ will stay healthy and bloom wonderfully year after year!
