Growing Tips for Your Lavandula angustifolium Blue Spear Seeds:

Start seeds indoors 8-10 weeks before transplant outside . Sow seeds with a thin cover of soil (approximately 1/8 inch) and maintain a temperature of 60-70°F (15-21°C) for germination.

Keep the soil consistently moist until seedlings are established. Transplant seedlings outdoors into a sunny location with well-drained soil, spacing them appropriately.

Lavender prefers light watering once established and benefits from light fertilization every two weeks during the growing season.
