In winter keep the containers fairly dry maybe in a cold greenhouse or in the rain shadow at the base of a wall to keep off excessive rain which will help improve the plants tolerance to cold weather. Plant them near your rose trees since they act as aphid repellents. Another major reason lavender is so prized is that its flowers keep their fragrance when dried.

Lavender likes soil that is quite low in nutrients so plants dont generally need feeding.

This is why dry and sandy substrates that dont retain water are recommended. In colder growing areas plants may need extra winter protection. Luckily none of this is very intensive. Remember that lavender plants are naturally used to being in hot and dry locations.
