Lavender 'Blue Rider'

Blue Rider likes a position of full sun and remember to water moderately. Keep in mind when planting that Blue Rider is thought of as hardy, so Blue Rider will tend to go dormant or grow slowly over the winter months. Ensure your soil is sandy, loamy and silty and has a ph of between 6.1 and 8.5 as Lavender is a weakly acidic soil to weakly alkaline soil loving plant.

Look to ensure a distance 1.95 inches (5.0 cm) between seeds when sowing - bury at a depth of at least 0.23 inches (0.6 cm) deep. Soil temperature should be kept higher than 15°C / 59°F to ensure good germination.

By our calculations, you should look at sowing Blue Rider about 1 days after your last frost date.

Ensure that temperatures are mild and all chance of frost has passed before planting out, as Blue Rider is a hardy plant.
