What to do with Lavender plants?

[rollerbaby]

I have 3 very big and bushy plants from last year. I left them throughout the winter and pruned in spring (wrong I know) and now 2 of them are half woody with no regrowth and look v crap. The other one has flowered well and got v big. what do I do now? Bin the half dead ones? Or cut back the dead bits?

As you can see I know nothing of gardening!

Thanks

rather than binning the deadish ones try planting them deeper, it worked for one of mine when I didn't prune it because of an awful autumn. Now I always cut the flowers and a lot of foliage and put them in a vase in the house dry, then we have the lovely smell in the house and no pruning to do!

Should I cut the flowers and stalks off soonish do you think?

Thanks!

Yep I've already started (got about 15 plants dotted about the garden) as soon as they look pretty, they are picked!

You could also take cuttings now from the one that has lots of new growth on.

hi assassin - how does that work exactly? Thanks!

All the info is here

I am going to have a bash myself. I have a VERY leggy lavender plant and rather than chuck it I'm going to try and take cuttings, which is something I've never done before. I'm quite excited, it feels like trying for a baby! Will do it at the weekend.
