How to grow Lavender 'French Perfume'

  • Full Sun

  • Medium

Try to plant in a location that enjoys full sun and remember to water moderately. Keep in mind when planting that French Perfume is thought of as hardy, so it can be safe to leave outdoors for the majority of winter (although if in doubt, using a row cover is often a good idea). Ideally plant in sandy, loamy and silty soil and try to keep the ph of your soil between the range of 6.1 and 8.5 as French Perfume likes to be in weakly acidic soil to weakly alkaline soil.

Growing French Perfume from seed

Aim to sow 0.23 inches (0.6 cm) deep and try to ensure a gap of at least 1.95 inches (5.0 cm). Soil temperature should be kept higher than 15°C / 59°F to ensure good germination.

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

Transplanting French Perfume

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