How to grow lavender seeds?

My lavender seeds grow just one set of leaves before dying, sunshine doesn't help. I use vermiculite and a little water to house the seeds.

How to grow lavender seeds?
I suspect a fungus They can take a long time to sprout (two weeks or more) and this invites fungus to the seed tray, often causing the seed to rot before it can sprout. Seeds benefit from light, so cover lightly when sowing. The germination temperature should be around 70 degrees and spring seeding is more successful than fall seeding. Those seeds that do sprout will take one to three months before they have enough roots and top growth to allow successful transplanting. Adding fertilizer to the sterile medium used in the seed tray can help the little plants get off to a better start, but it can also invite fungus in cool, humid situations.





This is one of the reasons that most lavenders are started from cuttings taken from Mother plants. This is both fast and accurate, producing an exact replica of the original plant.





I don't want to discourage you from trying seed, however. I hope that this helps and you are successful. Lavender is such a rewarding plant to raise for so many reasons. Best of luck.

Reply:I have never grown lavender from seeds so I don't know how difficult it is to grow. I bought one plant from a garden center years ago and now I have more lavender than you can imagine so I would say that just buying plants is the way to go.
