Lavender is a drought-tolerant perennial herb that thrives in full sun and well-draining, slightly alkaline soil. Water infrequently and deeply, and avoid letting roots sit in wet soil, which can cause root rot. Prune lightly after flowering each year to maintain a compact, bushy shape and encourage vigorous blooms.
