Lavender

When is the best time to cut off dead lavender from a lavender bush? Ta Muchly and Keep Well All!

Cut the dead heads off the stems (but don't go down to old wood)...and when the whole bush finishes flowering, give it a light clip with shears before winter - works for us.

...should have said to remove heads as soon as they look spent!

Very Many Thanks for that, Ginge!

The spent flowers can make a good pot-pourri

Nice thought, Chip!
