As long as the roots and stems of lavender do not rot and die, there are many varieties of lavender with a flowering period mostly from June to August. When it blooms, it has great ornamental value, so many potters like to use it as a family potted plant for cultivation. But lavender spikes are mostly used as cutting materials. In fact, lavender itself is a highly ornamental perennial herbaceous plant, with rhizomes growing below the soil layer, mainly relying on its rhizomes to absorb the nutrients and water needed for growth.

Usually, it is easy to feed it, and the next round will still grow and bloom as scheduled. As for how long potted lavender can survive, this is mainly closely related to our usual maintenance and management methods. If maintained and managed well, it is not a problem to survive for up to 10 years; But if the maintenance and management work is not done well in daily life, resulting in severe root rot, the time of death is also a matter of minutes.

It is heat-resistant and drought resistant, cold resistant and barren resistant, so its vitality is also relatively tenacious. Even with rough cultivation, it is easy to cultivate it well. Our first consideration is to protect its roots and stems from damage. Because as long as the root system is intact, we can keep it for many years. The phenomenon of lavender rotting roots, like most other flowers and plants, is mainly caused by stagnant water or high humidity in the pot.

So, watering is crucial in the maintenance and management process. After all, lavender is resistant to drought but not humidity, and prefers a dry growth environment. Therefore, watering should be done in moderation, otherwise it may cause root rot and dead roots. As a family potted plant user, many potters like to place it on their own balcony for maintenance, while outdoor balconies are susceptible to wind and rain, especially in rainy seasons.

Especially for newly potted plants, watering is crucial. Usually, after planting in the upper pot, it is necessary to water thoroughly in a timely manner, and after taking the pot, the principle of "seeing dry and seeing wet" is adopted for watering. But watering also needs to pay attention to the method, not blindly watering, especially avoiding directly watering plants with water. Of course, attention should also be paid to controlling the water volume to avoid splashing the soil in the pot onto the branches and leaves of the plant, otherwise it is easy to cause diseases.

However, many potted lavender enthusiasts also like to place potted lavender indoors near the windowsill, which can receive light, ensure smooth ventilation, and facilitate indoor viewing. However, watering still needs to be scientifically reasonable and not careless, otherwise it may also lead to waterlogging and the phenomenon of rotten or dead roots, ultimately shortening its lifespan. In addition to watering, sometimes improper fertilization can also cause root rot and dead roots.
