How to plant lavender for tropical climates:
1. Performed during the afternoon when the sun is not too hot and the temperatures drop, collect a planting medium of 1 part compost and three parts of the clotted soil. This land can usually be obtained from the ground near the roots of banana trees. characteristics, when dried, ground form a large granule. This land is important for early growth because it can withstand water and moisture. Do not use sandy soils that internet mostly recommended.
2. Put the soil into small polybags filled up to 10 cm. Then wet until moist. Its features are when you start to form a ball from the media if you squeeze it.
3. By using sharp stainless steel scissors, cut the lavender stems approximately 10-15 cm from the tip of the rod. The piece was taken 2-3 mm below the part where the leaves emerge. Then remove the leaves at the base of the stem to 5 cm and above.
4. Then make a hole in the middle of planting media and plant the lavender stems to a depth of 5 cm.
5. Place the lavender plant in a sunny but shaded from direct sunlight and protected from rain.
6. Flush your plant when the soil begins to dry on top, about every 2-3 days is quite as much as 3 tablespoons of water.
7. Once the plants start to grow roots that marked with that upright growth and the base color is still green (usually within 2 weeks), move the lavender plant and put it in the shade of blue or white plastic.
8. Fertilized with manure or organic fertilizer once a week.
9. After polybags filled with roots, move the plant lavender into a larger pot with the same media as before. Do not forget to peel a little dirt on the bottom before it is put into the pot, so that roots are a little loose and it will grow roots again in the new media. Afterwards flush until quite humid.
