4. Transplanting: Once seedlings develop several true leaves, gradually harden them off and transplant to their final location, spacing them about 12–18 inches apart for optimal growth.

Care & Maintenance:

• Watering: Water regularly during dry spells to maintain even soil moisture; mature lavender is relatively drought tolerant.

• Pruning: Lightly trim back after flowering to maintain shape, encourage new growth, and enhance air circulation.
• General Care: Ensure full sun exposure and good air circulation to prevent fungal diseases and promote robust blooming.
