When to cut back my lavender?

You want to be cutting back your  Angustifolia and Intermedia lavenders after the lavender has finished its flowering for the summer, in the UK this is usually around the end of August to the start of September, we suggest 15th September between 10 and 11am! Cut down to about half an inch above the hard word, and you should see new growth within a few weeks. Some Intermedia plants will still be in flower November, these should be left and cut back in mid March/April an inch above the old wood. The Stoechas (French,Spanish) lavenders :- Dead head throughout the summer,this will encourage a long flowering season.Cut back half the green growth in spring.
