Default Pruning lavender (zone 24/8)

Should I just cut off the spent blooms? How far down?


Yes. You will want to trim the spent blooms back and give the foliage a
bit of a haircut while you are at it. Not too much though - just enough
to restore the shape of the plant. This helps to keep the lavendar from
getting too leggy.

Is there any reason to cut plant back to the ground?


I tried this once. I don't recommed it
