*** It was up against the house south facing.***
So…sunny in the winter time, and maybe a little protected being near the house? I’d like to not have to replant mine if at all possible.
In west Michigan it worked well.
Munstead was developed by or at least grew in the garden of English landscape artist and gardener, Gertrude Jekyl. It might tolerate climate with some humidity better than other types. I am in 6B. Very dry and hot. I have a number of Munstead bushes out back. (Her garden was called Munstead Wood)
(Note that Diana gave some instructions 2 years ago on growing lavender and rosemary...do not to water the ground around the plant, just spray the leaves.)
I think there is some right here at the bottom left of this picture.
I am not sure the lifespan of lavender. probably 5 or 6 years if you keep it pruned and remove the dead branches? Diana, do you know?
