Default new to group & lavender questions

Hi There Ya'll,

I am new to this group but I have loved gardening for
years, from Austin, Texas. I was hoping that maybe
ya'll could help me understand waht is happening with
my new lavender plant cause my gardening books don't
cover growing lavender.

I was wondering if you have any words of advise about
my new lavender bush that seems to be dying. After I
tranplanted into a large clay pot and put it on the
front porch, behind a lattice facing east (some
shade cause floweres are growing up the lattice) the
leaves on the bottom of the plant started turning
brown and the leaves at the top are curling up. I
am guessing the plant got too hot so I brought it
inside (temps lately are in the upper 90's and HUMID.
I guess it is possible that the lavender did not
like getting watered from over head???

So far I have tons of cucumbers, yellow squash is
starting to produce, tomato seems to only be making
foilage, soon we will be eating green peppers
from the yard and the fig is completely covered with
small green unripe figs...

Anyway, thanks in advance

Amber
