Tips for Growing Your Own Lavender Plants
7. Prune your plants
Pruning is essential for growing strong, healthy lavender. This frees the plant to channel its energy toward sturdier stems and more leaves. Pruning lets you control the general shape and size of your plant while promoting flowering, too.
In early fall, cut back one-third to one-half of the green stem. Be careful not to cut into the woody part. Cut the bush in a mounded shape so that the plant won’t become open and woody in its center as it grows.
