Question:
Answers:
Ah, someone from Arizona! I'm in New Mexico and we grow lavender. It is annual and it does get droopy in the heat. Mine is in full sun and I water it daily. Just wanted to re-assure you that the first answerer is correct. It perks up after dark, but we're at 5000' and do have cool nights.
perennial, and just make sure they get enough water, they are pretty hardy plants.
Lavender is a perennial plant and grows very well in full sun. Mine has gone crazy this summer and spread all around my tree.
It also takes very cold weather. I love it so much. Just ignore it basically and it will grow. I live in Zone 7. Arizona should be a good place to grow lavender.
Good wishes to you.
It is a preennial, give it some water and plenty of sun.
