Botanical Name: Lavandula stoechas Common Names: Spanish lavender Description:¬† Spanish lavender thrives in full sun and sandy, well-draining soil. Avoid standing water, and amend clay soil with sand, gravel, or peat moss. Though drought-tolerant, it prefers slightly moist soil, so water before it fully dries, keeping leaves dry to prevent disease. Native to the Mediterranean, this plant thrives in hot, dry climates (zones 8a‚b) but is not cold-hardy, needing temperatures above 10F. Adapted to poor soil, it grows well without fertilizer, making it a low-maintenance choice for warmer regions. Show more
