How to grow Lavender 'The Prince' in NZ

Lavender 'The Prince' thrives in full sun and free draining soil to ensure strong flowering and long term health. Choose a warm, sunny site receiving at least six hours of direct light daily. Avoid heavy or waterlogged soils, as lavender prefers dry, open growing conditions. Water regularly during establishment, then reduce watering to occasional deep soakings. It performs reliably in coastal and inland gardens across New Zealand.

Lavender 'The Prince' care tips

Caring for Lavender 'The Prince' is straightforward and low maintenance. Trim lightly after flowering to maintain a neat, upright form and encourage fresh new shoots. Avoid cutting back into old woody stems, as lavender reshoots best from younger growth. Once established, water sparingly and avoid heavy fertilisers that can produce soft, leggy growth. A slow release fertiliser in spring supports reliable seasonal blooming.
