✂️ Pruning: When Lavender is 6-8 inches, prune back 1/3 of the plant during first growth. From there, you can let the lavender plant grow and flower, only pruning once a year. We recommend checking the roots monthly and trimming any that are brown or extending past the yPod.
🔎 Plant Health: Aphids and whiteflies are common pests, but you can use our prevention and treatment tricks to keep pests at bay!
🌻 Harvest: To harvest Lavender, simply snip off the stems when the buds have formed on the plant and the flowers are just about to open. Generally, you want to harvest the stem of Lavender when half the buds are in bloom. When harvesting, use very sharp pruners or shears because the Lavender stem can be tougher to cut. You can dry your stems by tying and hanging them up in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated area. After a few weeks the flowers will be dry and can be gently shaken from the stems into a storage container.
Originally from the Mediterranean region, Lavender was used by the Romans to preserve linen. In the Middle Ages, Lavender was also used in perfumes and medicines.
Lavender’s deep, blue-tinted purple flowers have a soothing floral scent. When the flowers are dried, they will keep their fragrance for a very long time.
Lavender has many uses! It’s calming properties are recommended to combat anxiety and insomnia. Lavender flowers can be steeped in hot water and enjoyed as an herbal tea. You can also infuse the flowers in milk to make lavender cream. Additionally, Lavender can help make your home smell lovely.

Lavender flowers make a perfect bouquet for someone seeking a little relaxation.
