When to Sow French Lavender Seeds
February to August

Where to Sow
Under cover sow the seeds into pots or trays on the surface of a good seed compost and then lightly cover with a sprinkling of compost or vermiculite. Place at a temperature of 21-25°C (70-75°F) until seeds germinate which usually takes 14-21 days.

What to do Next
Transplant seedlings when large enough to handle into pots or trays. Gradually acclimatise plants to cooler conditions for a few weeks before planting out 23cm (9″) apart. Overwinter late summer sowings in a cold frame and plant out the following spring.
