How to grow Lavender 'Baby Pink Princess' in NZ

Grow Lavender 'Baby Pink Princess' in full sun with free draining soil and good airflow. Choose a warm position that receives at least six hours of direct sunlight each day. Water regularly during the first growing season to establish the roots, then reduce watering as the plant matures. Avoid heavy or waterlogged soil, particularly through winter. Lavender 'Baby Pink Princess' also grows well in containers filled with quality free draining potting mix. Space plants so air can move freely around the foliage, as this helps maintain healthy growth and supports reliable flowering.

Lavender 'Baby Pink Princess' care tips

Lavender 'Baby Pink Princess' is easy to care for once established. Water during prolonged dry periods, but avoid over watering because lavender prefers relatively dry conditions. Apply a light application of fertiliser in spring if growth is weak. Trim lightly after flowering to maintain a compact rounded shape and encourage fresh growth, but avoid cutting deeply into old woody stems. Remove spent flower spikes if a tidier appearance is wanted. Good drainage, full sun, and regular light pruning are the main requirements for keeping the plant healthy, dense, and flowering well.
