Most flowering plants do best in poor soils. If the soil is rich you'll have a nice plant but minimal flowers. Lavender is a Mediterranean plant. The soil there is rocky poor, that's how nature designed them to live. Wherever the plant comes from is the best way to care for it.

all our stuff is outside, including the lavender. it could be something to do with the soil if lavender prefers a rockier environment. I'll definitely do more research on it and try again another time.
