When does lavender generally bloom? How should it be raised?

Yingying, did you grow lavender? Lavender also grows in sunny places, it is cold and heat tolerant, and it is hungry for spring blooms like other plants!

Trouble, thanks!

It blooms from June to August, but in summer it will stop growing and go into a short period of dormancy, and it will only bloom in autumn.

Lavender has an elegant flower posture, a unique floral fragrance, and more romantic feelings. Therefore, many couples or friends who have their own planting families want to know when lavender will bloom? And how to maintain lavender during flowering?

When is lavender flowering.

Lavender generally blooms in June. There are no flowers in summer and winter or a small number of flowers in summer, and they grow in different areas. For example, in a cool place in summer, the amount of flowers will be very good. Potted or protective cultivation has a longer flowering period and an indefinite flowering period.

When does lavender bloom and bloom.

Lavender generally blooms from June to August. Because lavender likes sunlight, heat, drought, extreme cold, barrenness, and salinity, the cultivation field needs sufficient sunshine and good ventilation. The time it takes from sowing to flowering (or harvesting) is 18-20 weeks.

Lavender is semi-heat-tolerant, cool, likes warm winters and cool summers, and grows at the right temperature: 15 25 and 5 30.

When does lavender bloom for maintenance.

Fertilization: lavender does not have high requirements for fertilizer, in its fast-growing spring (3 May), nitrogen, phosphorus, potassium compound fertilizer can be applied monthly, and a solution can be prepared for irrigation, with a concentration of 1%. Too much nitrogen fertilizer can easily cause overgrowth.

Shaping the jujubes: After flowering, the jujube is cut off at the first node under the flower, and the plant is pruned into a hemispherical shape by the way. Usually, cut off dry branches at any time. In order to control the height of the plant or get a better plant shape, it is necessary to re-prune in late summer and early autumn to promote the growth of new branches.

Lavender pest control: few insect pests. The disease is mainly root rot, and the incidence is highest in high temperature and stagnant water environment.

Prevention and control methods: irrigate the roots with carbendazim and chlorothalonil 800 times solution, once a month, especially in June and October, pay attention to prevent water accumulation and keep the air dry.

Light: Lavender is a long-day plant, and light plays an important role in its development and the formation of aromatic oils. Excessive shading can lead to growth and susceptibility. In the home, lavender should be placed on a sunny balcony.

Temperature: English Lavender (Able to tolerate absolute low temperatures of -30 and high temperatures of Yun Kuo 41, but cold environments are most suitable.) French lavender likes a warm environment, is resistant to low temperatures of -10, and can be planted in the Shanghai area.

Humidity: Lavender prefers a dry environment, so it should not be watered frequently at home.

Repotting: Lavender grows quickly and needs to be repotted once a year. In the first year, seedlings in the young side hole can be replaced with pots with a diameter of 12 to 16 cm, and in the second year, they must be replaced with pots with a diameter of 20 cm.

1.Soil: Suitable for slightly alkaline or neutral sandy soils.

Special attention should be paid to the selection of a well-drained medium, which can be mixed with 1 3 pearlstone, 1 3 vermiculite, and 1 3 peat moss. If you are cultivating in the open field, you should pay attention to the drainage of the soil, and you can raise the soil into a furrow before planting.

2.Watering: Lavender does not like the roots and often has water trapped.

After a thorough watering, the water should be given when the soil is dry, and the surface culture medium is dry, the internal moisture is the degree, and the leaves are slightly wilted. Watering should be done in the morning, away from sunlight, and the water should not splash on the leaves and flowers, otherwise it will be perishable and cause pests and diseases. Constant humidity can cause the roots to not have enough air to breathe and grow poorly, or even die suddenly, which is often the reason for the failure of lavender cultivation.

3.Light: Lavender is a full-day plant, which needs sufficient sunlight and a humid environment, and the environment that can give full sunshine is better, and it can also grow in half-daylight, but the flowering is rarer.

In summer, at least 50 percent of the sun should be shaded and ventilation should be increased to reduce the ambient temperature, so that growth is weakened but not dead. In winter, lavender grows well on flat ground and should be cultivated in full sun.

4.Temperature: Lavender is semi-heat-resistant, cool, likes warm in winter and cool in summer, and grows at the right temperature

15 25 and 5 30 can be grown. Limiting temperature: above 35, above 38 for a long time 40 The top stems and leaves are yellow.

In the northern winter, it begins to dormant when it is below 0 for a long time, and the seedlings can tolerate low temperatures of 20 25 when dormant.

5.Fertilization: Bone meal can be used as base fertilizer in the potting soil (used once every three months), small seedlings can be applied Huabao No. 2 (20-20-20), and fertilizer with higher phosphate fertilizer such as Huabao No. 3 (20-30-20) can be applied after the plant is grown. Apply light fertilizer.

6.Pruning: lavender flowers have the most abundant essential oil content, mainly flowers or inflorescences when using, in order to facilitate harvesting, some small inflorescences at the beginning of cultivation may wish to be leveled with large scissors, and the new inflorescences are highly consistent, which is conducive to a harvest.

Some varieties can reach a height of up to 90 cm, and this method is also used to make the plants low to promote more branching, flowering, and increase the harvest. After flowering, it must be pruned, and the plant can be pruned to the original 2 3, and the plant type will be stronger and conducive to growth. When pruning, it should be pruned in the cold season such as spring and autumn, and generally pruned in spring, and pruning in autumn will affect cold tolerance.

When pruning, be careful not to cut the lignified part to avoid the plant weakening and dying.

It's very easy to raise, it is a variety of extensive management, as long as you control the itchy hands, don't keep watering, rather dry than wet, this is very important! The sun is abundant, you can't bask in the summer (you can do it in the morning), you can bloom, and the more sunlight you have, the more fragrant it will be! If you use three-in-one soil, put more perlite, and if you use the soil in ordinary land, the northern soil is mixed with one-fifth of sand, and the southern soil must be mixed with one-twentieth of plant ash in addition to sand to grow well!

It is easy to raise, which is equivalent to a lazy flower, and it is not good to manage too much.

The flowering season is June.

Lavender is a semi-shrub or dwarf shrub, branched, stellate with long flowering branches and short renewal branches. Flowering period is June. The whole plant has a light aroma with a slight sweetness of wood, and the fluff on the flowers, leaves, and stems all contain oil glands, which burst when gently touched.

Growth habits. Lavender is highly adaptable. Adult plants are resistant to both low and high temperatures, and can tolerate high temperatures of about 40 during the harvest season. In the Huanglong area of Shaanxi Province, lavender plants safely overwintered in the open at -21; In Xinjiang, it can withstand -37 low temperatures after buried soil treatment and snow cover.

Seedlings can tolerate low temperatures of -10.

During the growth and development of lavender in the following year, the average temperature was about 8, and it took 10 15 days to germinate. The average temperature was 12 15 days, and it took 20 days for the branches to regreen and elongate. The average temperature is 16 18 days, and it takes 25 30 days to bud on. The average temperature is 20-22 and flowering begins; The average temperature is 26 32 and is the fruiting period.

Growing conditions. 1. Moisture.

Lavender is a dry-loving plant that does not require much water, and the annual rainfall of 600 800 mm is more suitable. At the rejuvenation stage and budding stage, the plant grows faster and requires more water. Low water requirement during flowering; The amount of water should be appropriate during the fruiting period; During the winter dormant period, winter irrigation or snow cover is required. Therefore, the ideal distribution of rainfall in a year is abundant in spring, moderate in summer, and plenty of snow in winter.

2. Sunshine. Lavender is a long-day plant, which requires sufficient sunshine during the growth and development period, and more than 2000 hours of sunshine throughout the year. If the plant is in a humid environment, it will develop poorly and senescent rapidly.

The role of lavender.

1. Chase away the moths. Air-dried lavender is a natural alternative to mothballs, which contain toxic pesticides. One study found that lavender essential oil was effective at killing the larvae of a type of moth, and it was worth a try.

Just put the sachet with air-dried lavender in your closet, it will not only drive away moths, but also make the clothes smell fresh.

2. Make a fragrant garland. In aroma**, lavender can be used to relieve anxiety and elevate mood. Jiang Haitao said

Aroma and odor are smells, there is no good or bad, people like aromatic smells, this is because the aroma and people's righteousness can be mutually sensitive, so the fragrance has a conditioning effect on the body's qi, and the aroma has the characteristics of stretching, which can make the stagnation of the qi open smoothly.

3. Clean up the contaminated soil. Several studies have found that planting lavender is an effective way to save from soil pollution, such as in former mining areas; Because it removes heavy metals and other contaminants from the soil. Even better, these contaminants do not affect the quality of the lavender plant itself or its essential oils.

5. Sleep aid. The scent of lavender has a soothing and calming effect and helps you fall asleep. Drink a cup of lavender flower tea before bed, or tuck a lavender sachet into your pillow to help you fall asleep.

Different countries, the flowering period of lavender is also different, Zhejiang Tonglu also has a lavender manor, Zhejiang Tonglu Barbizon Manor, which is planted in a large area of lavender, which blooms in May and June, very beautiful, and can be seen when the time comes.
