~ Sowing ~


When to Sow Outside:

Direct sow in early spring after frost, or in late fall to allow seeds to naturally stratify over winter.


When to Start Inside:

Start seeds indoors 8-10 weeks before the last frost date. Lavender seeds germinate slowly and benefit greatly from cold stratification before sowing.


**Stratification Instructions:**

1. Place seeds in a small bag or container with moist (not wet) sand, vermiculite, or a paper towel.

2. Seal the container or bag and store it in the refrigerator for 3-4 weeks. Check periodically to ensure the medium remains moist but not waterlogged.

3. After stratification, sow seeds indoors or outdoors as described below.


**Sowing Indoors:**

1. Fill seed trays or small pots with a well-draining seed starting mix. A sandy or gritty mix is ideal.

2. Lightly press seeds into the surface of the soil, barely covering them with a fine layer of sand or mix. Lavender seeds require light to germinate.

3. Mist the soil to ensure it is evenly moist but not soggy.

4. Place the trays in a warm location with temperatures between 65-75°F. Use a heating mat if necessary to maintain consistent warmth.

5. Cover with a clear lid or plastic wrap to retain humidity but ensure airflow to prevent mold.

6. Provide bright light, ideally from a sunny window or grow light.


Days to Emerge:

14-28 days, but germination may take up to 30 days. Patience is key when growing lavender from seed.


**Seed Spacing:**

Space seeds 12-18 inches apart. Thin seedlings to one per pot or planting location once established.


**Hardiness:**

Lavender is frost-tolerant once established. Protect young seedlings from severe freezes.


~ Growing ~


Soil:

Lavender thrives in well-drained, nutrient-poor soil. Amend heavy soils with sand or grit to improve drainage. Avoid overly rich soils, which can lead to reduced fragrance and weak plants.


Watering:

Water sparingly. Allow the soil to dry out between waterings, as lavender is highly drought-tolerant once established.


Light and Temperature:

Requires full sun for best growth and fragrance. Prefers temperatures between 60°F and 80°F.


Maintenance:

Prune lightly after flowering to maintain compact growth and encourage a second bloom. Avoid heavy pruning, which can damage the plant.


Container Friendly:

Excellent for containers with good drainage. Use a potting mix specifically designed for Mediterranean herbs or mix sand into regular potting soil.


~ Harvesting ~


When to Harvest:

Harvest flowers just as buds begin to open for maximum fragrance and oil concentration.


How to Harvest:

Cut flower spikes at the base, leaving foliage intact to encourage further growth.


Drying and Storing:

Hang bundles of flowers upside down in a dark, dry place to preserve color and fragrance. Store dried flowers in airtight containers away from direct sunlight.


Edible Use:

Lavender flowers can be used in teas, infused into syrups, or added as a unique culinary garnish.


~ Seed Saving ~


Seed Collection:

Allow flowers to dry and form seed heads on the plant. Harvest seeds when heads are brown and dry.


Seed Cleaning:

Gently remove seeds from dried heads and clean off any remaining debris.


Seed Storage:

Store seeds in a cool, dry place. Properly stored seeds remain viable for 2-3 years.


~ Additional Information ~


Forage for Pollinators:

Lavender’s fragrant blooms attract bees, butterflies, and other pollinators, making it an eco-friendly choice for gardens.


Origin:

Native to the Mediterranean region, Vera Lavender is a classic herb cultivated for centuries.


History:

Lavender has been treasured throughout history for its calming scent and medicinal uses. A favorite of Victorian apothecaries.


Climate Adaptability:

Ideal for hot, dry climates, Vera Lavender thrives in sunny, low-maintenance gardens.

Great busy toy!
Color: Squirrel
My dog loves this toy! And I hate squirrels, so I love to see him try to k*ll it. Haha Some of the "pockets" are a little deep and he did manage to rip 1 pocket off during the first use; but it's still keeping him busy!

Velcro for folding?
The toy came folded in a bag very nice. However once I took it out I realized the folds were attached by Velcro. Once unrolled I have not needed to use the Velcro since. Just one piece of the toy that was unnecessary. Otherwise t the dot is very colorful and my dog has not been able to tear it up yet.

Great toy for moderately destructive dogs
Color: Dragon
My dog LOVES this toy. It's not hard to see why: it has just about everything a dog could want in a soft toy. There are ropes that move around, a squeaker, crinkly wings, and different textures of fabric. It's not extremely durable--I've had to sew up one busted seam within a month or so--and you will likely have to re-knot the ropes and pull them back through the holes, but if your dog is only moderately destructive, they will enjoy this. I'd buy another.

Dog Obsessed -- Toy a Mess
Color: Squirrel
The dog was OBSESSED. Truly loved this toy, but he ripped the little pockets really easily. While he still wanted to play with it, it was a little disappointing.
