| I am wondering if it is even POSSIBLE to keep my lavender topiaries ALIVE this winter? I seem to be able to kill plants quite easily no matter the season! Green thumb? NOPE! not here! Do I keep them inside or out? Do I prune them down? ANY help would be GREATLY appreciated! |

I'm not expert but I would keep them in a garage wrapped in burlap. I keep my potted Japanese maples that way successfully for 5 years. Lavender is a perennial so it should survive but it needs some dormancy (that's why the garage).
ReplyDeletewell, we have a shed-I looked on line to check some things out-but I'm sure I'll kill them! thanks! :(
DeleteGood luck! I'd have no idea. I had a boxwood topiary once, which quickly died. But it still looked great so I kept it for about a year after! I'm just thrilled that my last-year's lavender actually came back this year thanks to our mild winter here in AB.
ReplyDeleteya, I'm pretty sure I'll have to buy more next spring! LOL!
DeleteThank you so much for your visit today! The sheets came from the Shabby Chic line at Target. :-)
