Growing Details

Jean Davis Lavender grows as a compact, bushy perennial, reaching 12–18 inches in height and 18–24 inches in spread. Plant in full sun with well-drained soil, spacing plants 12–18 inches apart.

Harvest flower spikes when buds are just opening for optimal fragrance and color retention.

• Plant in full sun to encourage dense foliage and abundant blooms.

• Ensure well-drained soil to prevent root rot.

• Prune lightly after flowering to maintain shape and vigor.

• Water sparingly once established; overwatering can reduce fragrance and flower production.
