French Lavender 'Fascid'
Lavandula stoechas
'Fathead'
French Lavender 'Fathead' (Lavandula stoechas 'Fathead') is a popular garden plant due to its unique shape and fragrance. Growth CharacteristicsFrench Lavender 'Fathead' is a perennial herbaceous plant that typically grows up to 60 cm in height. It prefers sunlight and thrives best in well-drained soil. It is also tolerant of dry environments, although growth may be poor in humid conditions. Propagation MethodsThis lavender is primarily propagated by cuttings. Generally, in spring or early summer, cut a healthy stem to a length of about 7–10 cm, remove the lower leaves, and encourage rooting. Plant the cutting in well-draining soil mixed with sand; using a rooting hormone is recommended. Cultivation MethodsFrench Lavender prefers locations with ample sunlight. When watering, it is best to water thoroughly only when the soil has dried out. Caution is required, as excessive watering can cause root rot. Additionally, severe pruning every spring to protect against late frosts can promote the plant's health and growth. Uses in the GardenWith its distinctive fragrance and beautiful appearance, 'Passid' lavender is well-suited for garden edges, rock gardens, or hanging baskets. It can also be combined with other plants to create a monochrome garden. Important Pests and Control Methods Although this plant is relatively disease-resistant, leaf mold or root rot may occur in high humidity. To prevent this, it is important to create a well-ventilated environment and use well-draining soil. If disease occurs, cut off the affected parts and use fungicides if necessary. Aphids and scale insects are the main pests; mild cases can be washed away with water or treated with natural oil sprays. In severe cases, it is necessary to use appropriate insecticides. 'Passid' lavender is an excellent plant that is easy to care for and adds a unique charm to your garden. Grow it healthy and beautiful with proper care.
