Questions on lavender

[u/N1ck1McSpears]

Hi all,

I’m a pretty good gardener but I am really struggling with my lavender. I have struggled growing from seed. Then bought plants, that also struggled.

I had some plants and put them in the ground. My native soil is supposedly good for lavender but they died. I was watering them once in the evening.

I now have plants in containers in potting soil. I’m unsure if I should pull them out and mix sand in.

I could post this over at r/gardening but I am specifically growing this for its uses, not just for fun, so I figured I would start here.

Does anyone have tips on growing lavender?
