Caring for your Holiday Lavender
- Light
- Place your lavender cone in the brightest spot you have — preferably a south or west window.
- Lavender needs at least 6 hours of direct sunlight per day. If necessary, supplement with a grow light for lush foliage.
- Watering
- Allow the top 1–2 inches of soil to dry out before watering again.
- Water thoroughly, but make sure excess drains freely. Lavender strongly dislikes “wet feet”.
- Temperature & Humidity
- Ideal indoor temperatures are 60–75°F (16–24°C).
- Lavender thrives in lower humidity, like its native Mediterranean climate.
- Keep away from drafts (heating vents or cold windows).
- Feeding
- Fertilize sparingly — monthly during the growing season or every 6–8 weeks, using a light organic mix.
- Pruning
- Trim lightly and often to maintain your cone. Clip back wayward stems or any growth that spoils the cone shape.
- Always cut above a leaf node, focusing on green leafy growth (not woody stems).
- Rotate your plant weekly so all sides receive equal light and grow evenly.
