How to grow Lavender 'Marshwood' in NZ

Lavender 'Marshwood' thrives in full sun and free draining soil to support strong flowering and healthy growth. Choose a warm, sunny location that receives at least six hours of direct sunlight. Avoid heavy or waterlogged soils, as lavender prefers dry, well aerated ground. Water young plants regularly until established, then reduce watering to occasional deep soakings. It performs consistently well in both coastal and inland gardens across New Zealand.

Lavender 'Marshwood' care tips

Caring for Lavender 'Marshwood' is simple and rewarding. Trim lightly after flowering to maintain a tidy shape and encourage fresh growth. Avoid cutting back into older woody stems, as lavender reshoots best from younger wood. Once established, water sparingly and avoid excessive fertiliser. A light application of slow release fertiliser in spring supports consistent seasonal flowering.
