@mamanowwhat: If you’re growing English lavender, giving it a trim can give you a whole 2nd round of blooms later in the summer! Just know this little trick is mainly for English lavender like Hidcote and Munstead.. Other varieties are happiest with a simple deadhead and light trim! And before anyone worries about the bees… 🐝 My garden was actually designed to be a little bee sanctuary. I have 15 English lavender plants plus hundreds of other bee friendly flowers, so there’s always plenty in bloom for our pollinators. Trimming a few lavender plants now encourages fresh growth and another round of blooms later in the season, so if anything, it’s helping extend the buffet 💜
