Lavender is a popular perennial known for its fragrant flowers, as well as its use within cosmetics and herbal remedies. When you see abundant fields of lavender flowers it's easy to assume they are simple to grow and will find their way to blooming anywhere. But that really isn't the case, and there are some places in a yard where you should never plant lavender at all.
Planting lavender in certain climates and soil types will restrict its ability to grow or to survive, so it's vital to learn about these lavender growing mistakes before adding the plant to your collection.
