To encourage a second flush of flowers in late summer you should cut the flowered stems back as soon as they have finished.Garden care: For best results choose an open spot away from taller plants. If necessary stake with bamboo canes as they start to shoot upwards in mid-spring. During the growing season apply a balanced liquid fertiliser every 2-3 weeks and wearing gloves cut back the faded flower-stems to a flowering side-shoot. Protect the young foliage against slug-damage in spring and at the end of autumn cut back and compost the faded flower-stems.

white French lavender £6.99
Position: full sunSoil: fertile, well-drained soilRate of growth: averageFlowering period: June and JulyHardiness: borderline hardyAs the name suggests, this French lavender has spikes of pure white flowers, topped with distinctive white, butterfly-like tufts from late spring to summer and grey-green, aromatic leaves. It makes a striking feature planted en masse as a fragrant edging for a sunny, protected border, along a path or in a container. Like most French lavenders, this is earlier flowering than its English cousins, but associates well with them if you want to prolong the season of lavender in your garden. The flower-spikes are also a magnet for bees and other beneficial insects. In frost-prone areas it is best grown in a large container and over-wintered indoors. As it’s borderline hardy it is best grown in a container in colder areas of the country and should be over-wintered in a cool greenhouse or conservatory.Garden care: Cut back the stalks after the flowers have faded to retain a compact shape. Carefully trim back in April, taking care not to cut into old wood.
