Well I thought so but am obviously wrong. I don’t know if you can see the small French lavender in front of my David Austin roses – it has hardly grown since I planted it. I had this planted in a position that didn’t see a lot of sun. After a month of no growth at all I moved the lavender to a far sunnier position hoping this would revive it. It’s not that it hasn’t grown, it’s just that it’s hardly grown and doesn’t seem to want to flower. Anyway, once again taking to Google I discovered that lavender doesn’t like clay soil and that’s what we have.
Question: if my lavender hasn’t grown as it doesn’t like clay soil then why does the neighbor’s lavender do so well?
