For more information on planting distances please see our planting density advice section.

As a general rule,smaller pots such as 2L pots can be planted anything from 2 up to 6 plants per metre (if planting in a double staggered row). Planting density is dependent upon the fullness of hedge you require and how long you you are happy to wait to achieve this.

Lavandula angustifolia 'Little Lady' requires a light prune after flowering. Unlike other lavenders, this dwarf variety is a little more delicate and being smaller growing requires a less aggressive pruning. However, it as advisable to still prune at the end of August prior to the plant becoming dormant to encourage new growth and flower production for the year after.

Prune back the flowers and also some of the stem to allow the light to reach further into the plant. Small stems will then start to grow before dormancy providing a good growth basis for the following year.
