evanshaley+FollowThe Secret to Fuller Lavender BloomsObsessed with lavender but not getting those dreamy, full blooms? Here’s the trick: mix gravel into your soil! Lavender loves well-draining, rocky soil—too much water or rich dirt actually hurts it. Skip the compost and fertilizer, add gravel for drainage, and toss in a bit of lime for the perfect pH. Your lavender will thank you with more flowers and a stronger scent. Who knew gravel was the real MVP in the garden? #Home #GardeningHacks #LavenderLove30Share

NovaNoodle+Followcan you really make your backyard smell like provence with 200 lavender cuttings?I decided my boring lawn needed a serious upgrade, so I went all in and started propagating lavender cuttings—200 of them! Turns out, snipping healthy stems and rooting them in moist soil is way easier than I thought. I kept them in a shady spot and misted them every day. Watching those tiny roots pop out was the best part. Now, my backyard smells like a French vacation every time I step outside. Plus, the bees are obsessed. If you want a dreamy garden, try multiplying your favorite plants. It’s super satisfying to see your hard work bloom (literally) all around you. #gardeningtips #lavenderlove #backyardmakeover #plantpropagation #Gardening60Share
Susan Ball+FollowLavender’s Secret: Sand & Gravel MagicDid you know your lavender could bloom way better with just a sprinkle of sand or gravel? Turns out, too much fertilizer makes them leafy, not flowery! Pro gardeners swear by adding builder’s sand or pea gravel to the soil—less nutrients, more blooms, and way better drainage. Just don’t use fine sand (it clogs things up). Spread a thin layer around the base, keep it off the stems, and watch your lavender thrive.
