My lavender is about 5ft 5" ,tall and 4ft wide. Its about 16 years old. I never really touch it except for taking some stems in summer autumn. Soil is alkaline and a little stony.Its magnificent. I had it in a little pot for a long time, and it was half dead. I got an allotment and it was the first plant I put on it. It took off with such gusto, and happiness, I am still in awe when I see it. 😊

After spending the last 30 years working on our bungalow it's time I got to work in our gardens? I'm now subscribed and keep up the good work. Kind regards, Colin.

How can I save my potted french lavender? Can I even grow it potted indoors in Chicago? (It's been about 15 F outside). It was gifted to me about a month ago, and it was doing well until about week ago. The tips of the leaves started to BROWN on one side. Now about half of the plant is browned, and a couple places droop while other parts thrive. The only directions I was given was to keep moist and hot, give good light. I put it on a South facing window sill. How often is it supposed to be watered? How do I save this plant? Would it help to repot it? How big does the pot have to be? What kind of soil does it need? Would it help to cut off the brown? If so, how do I do this without damaging it? Note: there are no buds yet, just leaves.

Hi nice to have found your channel ! glad to meet ! I'm kinda sad due one of my lavenderspecies and I really would like to get some help if possible ... The lavender I am growing is the last thing that in fact remains of my father , he adored this grandiose blue flowered plant so much he had them everywhere you'd spot a bit of soil , he made oil from it too and had a small company next to his other jobs in herbs and oils , now the lavender species I have ? NO IDEA !!! I have them all I guess ??? mutiple species but ONE in particular was his favourite and he called it the " normal lavender " , now these plants are over 15 y old but they start to look so scabby now since this spring and nothing that I have tried on them seems to work , how come and how can I save my lavender ? this plant means more to me than money can buy due the fact it is the last thing I grabbed and planted on his grave and in and around my house after selling his house , it stood litterly into the ruins and I grabbed them , almost all of them and gave them simply a new home , every year I prune lavender but this year it was impossible , his scaly legs is not what I am after ofcourse and the time I wanted to prune it , I had a poor handfull and that was it , the plants have only a few youngsters growing so my question is " could I grow the little ones on the motherplant and can my motherplants survive with any effords ??? " I really do not want to lose the last thing that grows and is actually alive from my father , please sir , if you read my comment , do reply please . I sincerely thank you much

Vicky Victoria Jolina Modelling Iliaens search for how to propegate lavender ! usually lavender has some new green growth and you have to make a sharp clean cut on these new stems and remove 2 sets of leaves and let with 2 gems from the lower leaves exposed to dig it in rooting hormone and stick it in soil and let atleast 2 sets of leaves on top and make sure that ur pruners are clean and u will deep it the first bottom stem in rooting powder found in stores and u will follow the instructions about preparing and creating new plants from the mother plants take as much as possible because the sooneer u do this the higher chance u can create new plants. Water their sandy rocky lowly fertile soil do not exagerate on the compost or organic matter and make the soil a mix always make as drained as possible and never overwater it. But u will water and make more umid to the new stems in cups that u make and try to keep them atleast a few weeks 2 or 3 with sticks to hold a plastic around the cup and the new tiny plant and do not let it get direct sunlight only indirectly otherwise it will kill the plant. After this 3 weeks i will slowly introduce each day some minutes to sun little by little with patience with everysingle one and then they will be new plants ans transplant them into new big pots to get stronger with GOOD DRAINAGE otherwise no drainage and no loose sandy rocky soil it will not help the plant WITH PH around 7-8 alkaline and with either lime mixed in the soil do not overdose it but give it a good hand of it ask for some help in garden center or if u choose mix many dried egg shells that it will be mixed with the soil and eill slowly make ur soil morr alkaline. If u feel like doing all the process it is possible but requires some care atleast for the first month for the stems to root. Get this ! Lavender gets old after 8 years... after 15 years the plants get extremely old and usually may die or really slow it down almost completely if u are lucky 20 yrs she might still give some growth and flowers but this is the limit of the plant ur dad went to the place where there are many other lavenders do not worry they go but they always will rebloom ! Thanks for worrying for him @ Btw the normal lavender must be the Lavandula Angustifolia Officinalis which is the english or traditional lavender usually she is kinda green and gray in winter andvery long both leaves and stems ! Try buying some new plants at the store those tiny ones and give them a good pruning to grow beautifully ! many blessings to u ! Almost forgot do not FERTILIZE with any liquid ur lavender just mix compost with sand in their soil once a year after the pruning to their preparation to bloom in spring/summer and make sure the soil is not clay oe heavy it needs drainage and watered gently slowly and it needs to get dry to the plant get stressed the more stressed and in suffer this plant is in poor soil no water and full sun the better and stronger it gets but if u overwater and make the soil too fertile u will kill them do not let them in shade just aclimate the plants slowly but in the end let them in sun happily

Our lavender doesn't look like any of the ones you showed. It looks like a bushy mess. I had no idea how to make it look more uniform. I'm glad I watched this. I'm not sure which type of lavender I have, but am I correct to assume that this is the way to prune all lavender? I'm on the east coast of the US, and the plants I purchased said 'English lavender' but I think that might be any number of lavender now that I am watching this.

Ok to prune now in mid August? It's looking brown and leggy and stopped flowering awhile back. It's in a pot so maybe it's feeling a bit squished, hard to say. I trimmed about 1/4 of the way down last week and it doesn't look too happy about it. Ok to go forward with trimming it further down? And what's the best way to fertilize lavender in a pot?

You can still prune lavender very lightly at this time of year. You can mulch, but not too close to the base of the plants as this will create still moist air around the base, which through the winter could give rise to botrytis (grey mould).....lavenders nemesis!

If it wasn't for the caption to this video I would have no idea what time of year you were talking about - you say it's 'too late to prune xxx' - when is, exactly? Why do you praise Folgate as a lavender variety when at the time of writing your nursery doesn't stock it? And why mention in passing at the last minute the optimum growing conditions for lavender - well drained, poor soil, alkaline etc? Kind of important if you're planting! And I note your nursery just sells plants - no bonemeal or lime based soil treatment that would help lavender grow. Kind of a missed opportunity.
@downderrylavender23910 жыл бұрын
Noghar - Thanks for your comments. At about 2mins 37 secs I mention the time of year. We try our best to stock all plants we regularly sell all the time, but we produce all on site and can't always accurately reflect the demand for certain varieties. I could mention the growing conditions in more detail and will in future videos. We sometimes sell bonemeal and lime, but demand doesn't usually warrant stocking them!
