Lavender FAQs
- Is Lavender a Flower or a Plant?
Lavender is technically a flower, herb, and shrub. It can be described as a flowering plant belonging to the mint family. Its flowers, which are shaped like spikes and grow in rings, are only part of the plant's life cycle. Over time they produce fruits that hold seeds, to help the lavender spread.
Lavender's culinary and medicinal uses also make it an herb. The plant has many healing properties, such as helping soothe burns, reduce anxiety, and induce sleep. This is why it's used in healing teas and essential oils. You can also use lavender when cooking to make lemonade, cookies, and cakes. Its fresh flavor and fragrance make for great-tasting recipes.
Lastly, lavender is regarded as a shrub because it develops multiple semi-woody stems, all growing from the base. - What Does Lavender Look Like?
There are 45 recognized species of the lavender plant growing throughout the temperate region. However, the most popular types include Spanish, English, French, Portuguese, and Lavandin. The English Lavender is the most common, and it's a 2-foot high, compact-woody plant with green foliage and spikes of purple, lavender, pink, or white flowers. - Does Lavender Spread?
Yes, it does. Since lavender is a flowering plant, it spreads through seed dispersal in the late summer. The flowers grow into fruits or pods that hold seeds, which are used to create more lavender plants. Lavender can also spread through vegetative growth when cared for properly and grown in the right weather conditions. - When Does Lavender Bloom?
Lavender usually blooms in the summer months of July to August, but this varies depending on the region, species, and type of lavender. For example, the English Lavender blooms in mid-June and stays in bloom for about four weeks. The French Lavender blooms in May, making it an early bloomer. - How Do You Care for Lavender Flowers?
If you have lavender flowers in your garden or a planter, ensure they receive ample sunlight and have well-drained, alkaline soil. Only water your lavender flowers once or twice a week, and as it starts to grow, cut back the watering to every two or three weeks or when the soil is completely dry. Lavender requires little to no fertilizer and is easy to maintain. All you have to do is prune the plants in the fall and cut out any dead brunches.
Once you harvest your lavender flowers, place them in a jar or bucket with cool water to keep them fresh. Be sure to place the jar away from direct sunlight, excessive heat, and drafts, as they can cause them to droop and wither faster. Change the water every 24 hours to help hydrate your lavender. You can also dry your flowers by hanging them in bundles in a cool, dry place, ensuring they last longer.
