I've got a lavender plant that's getting a bit overgrown, but I'm worried because every time I try to cut it back, those parts seem to die off. I'm wondering when is the best time to prune it—should I do it in the spring, summer, or even winter? Any tips would be super helpful, thanks!

I recently watched a video that said to prune lavender in early spring when you see new growth coming up. This helps promote a bushier appearance. Also, think about root pruning to help boost overall health!
I’m in the same boat and have been wondering too!
If you're looking to prune lavender, it's really best to do a harder cut in early autumn. That way, when spring comes, it can bush out again nicely from the pruned areas. Just remember to do some light shaping and deadheading during growth.
Same here, glad I'm not alone! Growing lavender can be tricky.
