Lavender is not fond of damp, still air, which makes it prone to root rot. In humid areas, space well. SOIL - Well-drained Sandy soil. This is perhaps the most important factor in success with lavender. In areas where drainage may be a problem, mound the soil up to create a raised row or stand-alone mound. *Lavender seeds will remain viable for up to 5 years if stored in a cool, dark place, ideally between 4 and 10⁰C.
