When it comes to lavender, most of what comes to mind is the large lavender field in Provence. In fact, lavender is also planted in our country. What are its planting conditions?

What are the planting conditions of lavender?

1. Soil condition

Lavender has well-developed roots and likes fertile soil with deep, loose, good air permeability and rich silicon and calcium. Acidic or alkaline soils and plots with heavy viscosity, poor drainage or high groundwater level should not be planted.

two。 Temperature condition

Lavender has strong adaptability. The adult plant can tolerate both low temperature and high temperature, and the high temperature is about 40 ℃ in the harvest season. In Huanglong area of Shaanxi Province, lavender plants can survive the winter safely in the open field at-21 ℃, while in Xinjiang, it can withstand the low temperature of-37 ℃ after buried soil treatment and snow cover. The seedlings can tolerate a low temperature of-10 ℃.

3. Water condition

Lavender is a kind of plant that likes to be dry and does not need much water. It is suitable for annual rainfall of 600-800mm. In the returning green stage and budding stage, the plant grows faster and needs more water; less water is needed in the flowering stage; it should be suitable in the fruiting stage; and winter irrigation or snow cover should be carried out in the winter dormancy period. Therefore, the ideal distribution of rainfall in a year is abundant in spring, moderate in summer and plenty of snow in winter.

4. Light condition

Lavender is a long sunshine plant, the growth and development period requires sufficient sunshine, the annual sunshine hours are required to be more than 2000 hours. If the plant is in a damp environment, it will underdevelop and age faster.

5. Fertilizer application

Fertilizing can put bone meal in the basin soil as base fertilizer (used once every three months), seedlings can apply Huabao 2 (20 / 20 / 20 / 20), and then apply fertilizers with higher phosphate fertilizer such as Huabao 3 (20-30 / 20). Apply light fertilizer.
