Lavender is prized for healing properties and aroma, and is generally easy to manage. Cornell University notes only a few disease issues. Plants reach 1–3 feet, blooming pink/violet in summer.
Shallow roots prone to rot from overwatering. Well-drained soil critical. Use porous clay pots for containers. Mix pumice into beds/containers for drainage.
Caused by insufficient sun. Lavender needs full sun. Indoor grow lights prevent wilt in containers. Ideal for sunny beds in home landscaping.
Bugs extract chlorophyll, causing brown leaves. Large nymph populations can kill plants. Treat with insecticides or liquid dish soap wash. Prevent nymphs to protect plants.
