Pruning <strong>Lavender</strong><br />

This is what happens if<br />

lavender is not pruned!<br />

• After harvest, plants need to be pruned and shaped. This<br />

should be done before the first hard frost<br />

• Cut plants back to leave 1-2 inches of green beyond woody<br />

stems (try to leave 2-3 nodes of the current season’s wood)<br />

• <strong>Lavender</strong> needs to be pruned back hard, or plants will<br />

become too large, woody and will splay open in the middle
