It fades in September, and is almost gone in October. If you want it to bloom, you must first increase the light to promote the differentiation of flower buds, and secondly control the temperature. It is easier to bloom when the temperature is warm. In addition, watering should be reduced and some phosphorus and potassium fertilizer should be added.

1. Flowering time

Lavender generally blooms in summer, with the flowering period from June to August. If the temperature is suitable, there will be flowers blooming in May, and the peak flowering period is from June to July. Most of the flowers fade in September, and only a few can last until October. It usually blooms the same year it is planted, and it usually takes 18-20 weeks from sowing to flowering.

2. How to grow flowers

1. Increase light: The growth of lavender is inseparable from sufficient light. The longer the light time, the more helpful it is for the differentiation of flower buds. It also allows it to perform photosynthesis better, thereby accumulating more nutrients. Usually it needs to be planted in a sunny place, and indoor potted plants can be placed on the balcony so that it can receive light.

2. Control temperature: Lavender is suitable for growing in a warm environment Medium, it grows well at a temperature of 15-25°C. If the temperature is too high, the leaves will turn yellow, and if the temperature is too low, it will become dormant. Generally, it should be placed in a warm place, especially after the flower buds appear, which can also promote flowering.

3. Reduce watering: Lavender itself has a low demand for water. If you water it too much, it will affect its growth. Although a well-watered environment is helpful for plant development, it is not conducive to flowering. If you want it to transfer nutrients from growth to flowering, you need to control watering and extend the watering interval.

4. Supplementary fertilizer: Any plant needs a certain amount of fertilizer to bloom. Nutrients, lavender is no exception, and before flowering, proper fertilization can promote flowering. Generally, phosphorus and potassium fertilizers are used as fertilizers. If nitrogen fertilizer is applied, it will cause the plants to grow elongated and inhibit the flowering of the plants.
