English Lavender thrives in full sun and well-drained soil, ideally sandy or loamy with a neutral to slightly alkaline pH. Avoid overwatering, as lavender prefers dry conditions and is highly susceptible to root rot in poorly drained soils. Space plants to allow good air circulation and prune lightly after flowering to maintain shape and encourage new growth. Mulching with gravel rather than organic material helps keep the crown dry and prevents fungal issues.
