How does a lavender plant reproduce?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

While MOST flowering plants and shrubs give off seeds ... one has to be SUPER-DILIGENT to find them on a lilac bush.

The best way to find Lilac bushes is to either take hard-wood cuttings from old growth or TRY to take out a "sucker" plant from a main plant? It's not easy, but with careful digging, one CAN get a "sucker" plant that might survive, depending on how you treat it, where you live, the humidity, the soil ... you name it!!

Does lavender need lime?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

If you are considering adding lime to your garden soil, you should first get a soil test. In most states and counties, this a free service provided by the state university extension service. Adding lime to the soil will not only increase the amount of calcium available, but raise the pH. Most plants need a slightly acid pH (lower than 7.0) to absorb nutrients from the soil around them. Plants use calcium in somewhat the same way that people do. While people use calcium to make their bones, plants use it to make the firm spaces in cell walls and the between cells. So the answer is: It depends. If the soil is poor in calcium and the pH is very low, the addition of lime will help. But lavender really likes well drained soil and plenty of sun. A dense, clay soil will not allow the lavender roots to "breathe" and it will drown. Again, a soil test is the first step in determining a plant's needs.
