Thanks for the growing tip using sand or pea gravel for lavender in humid climates. My plants just did so so here on the South Carolina coast. Thanks again!
Dude, on another article thread somebody (also from SC) reported that their lavender did very well in a hot sunny spot with a mulch of white sea shells.
Mulch yours, and see if things improve! Good luck!
Critter,
I also look up to see what herb or flower farm or even botanical garden we can visit while traveling. If ever you are in Indiana, check out Carolee's Herb Farm. She has lots of display gardens and rows and rows of lavender. I love to craft with lavender by using it dried in arrangements and in crafting soap.
Thanks for the advice about the mulch. We just discovered that we needed to mulch with some type of rock in order to keep our lavenders from rotting in the winter.
