芳香植物當中,最為人認識的大概就是薰衣草了。薰衣草原產於地中海沿岸,屬於唇形花科的常綠小灌木,葉形因品種而不同,花序屬於穗狀花序,顏色從深紫色到粉紅色甚至白色都有,全株具有芳香氣味 ,因為有讓人安寧鎮靜的效用而廣受歡迎。

薰衣草是全日照植物,卻又無法忍受炎熱而潮濕的天環境。因為薰衣草不喜歡根部常有水滯留,室外栽種時要注意土壤必須排水良好,然後可將培養土堆高成畦後再種植。栽培的地點需要日照充足,通風良好。

繁殖薰衣草可用分株、幹插或播種方式。

分株繁殖
春、秋季均可進行,用3、4年生植株老根分割,每枝帶芽眼。

幹插繁殖
幹插一般在春、秋季進行,夏季嫩枝幹插也可。幹插的介質可用2/3的粗砂混合1/3的泥炭苔。

選擇發育健旺的良種植株,選取節距短粗壯且未抽穗的一年生半木質化枝條頂芽,於頂端8-10cm處截取插穗。插穗的切口應近莖節處,力求平滑,勿使韌皮部破裂。將底部2節的葉片去除,插水2小時後再插於土中,約2-3星期就會發根。也可選8-10cm的一年生枝條,在排水良好,保持濕潤,20-24℃床溫的條件下,約40天左右生根。(不要用已出現花序的頂芽幹插,因為開花的枝條已經老化,發根能力衰弱)

種子繁殖
播種期一般選春季,溫暖地區可在每年的3-6月或9-11月進行,寒冷地區宜4-6月播種,在溫室冬季也可播種。種子有休眠期,播種前應將種子浸泡24小時。發芽天數約14-21天。發芽適溫:18-24℃。發芽後需適當光照,弱光照易徒長。低於15℃需1-3個月發芽。

薰衣草的用途廣泛,可製成香料、精油、奶油或果醬*。花穗還未開放時,可連同莖葉一起從植株底部剪下製成乾燥花,或是剪下花萼,乾燥後可泡茶飲用或製成香包,也可加入麵團中烘培餅乾。
*並非所有品種薰衣草皆可食用!

暑假時參觀美國一所薰衣草農場,種植的地方含沙量極高

There are a few Lavender bush blooming beautifully at the front garden; here a are few different snapshots.
They are of different varieties, very easy to grow, needs little looking after;
if you have a sunny spot in your garden, put a few in, and you will be pleasantly surprised by the reward.
I put mine in last summer, they have now at least tippled in their size.

Vanda, you should try growing some of them, they grow well in Tasmania where it is freezing cold in winter, so there should be no problem growing them where you are

師姐, 我都有種過, 但起碼種拾幾棵先好看, 我只種2棵. 出完花後好難睇, 最後放棄

Do they need any fertilizer?

Hi Norman, 1樓照片就是我種的薰衣草, 這一株淡紫色花, 另有一株深紫色花還有1株顏色更淡; 看上去像粉紅色.

你的只種了1年? 很茂盛的樣子

良哥, 我只種了3株, 但前面種了一些ground cover, 後面則種了大葉杜鵑.
有些品種像我這些闊度可以達3呎以上, 利用其他植物互相配搭可以很好看的, 有機會不妨再試.
其實重要的是花後入秋前需要修剪, 略作修剪可剪1/3, 大剪要剪2/3, 這樣才可以維持它的形態.

不一定需要經常施肥
初種的時候可以先下基肥如 bone meal, 偶然也可以下開花肥,
我的種了十多年從沒再給它們肥料, 但春天會加一層新的garden soil在舊土之上, 給它們補充微量原素.

Nice to know there is another affectionado for growing Lavender.
Vanda, you are the one with real practical experience. (10 years ... wow!)

Lavender is one of the easiest plant to grow, I think if you have a sunny balcony,
it can be grown in a 20 cm pot; try growing a few pots next to each other,
they would give you nice lavender flowers from early spring to late summer.

Me, as a first timer, this is what I learned:

The fresh lavender flowers do not have a strong fragrance as one might expect,
however, if you wait for the flowers to mature a bit, cut a few small bunches,
with the stems of about 7 to 8 cm long, together with some foliage;
Keep them in a little vase filled with fresh water, changing every 2 to 3 days,
the flowers will keep maturing and form seed pods.
After a week or so, tie up the small bunches with a piece of string,
hang them upside down in a shady spot for a couple of days,
then keep them in a paper bag.

After a couple of days, Open the bag, have a smell; you will be very pleasantly surprised.

Well, this is my little 2 cents worth of contribution.

Norman,
如果你想做一束乾花, 收割時間應該在第2-3朵花開放時連6-8"的莖剪下, 扎好倒掛風乾.
要做香包的話, 風乾後將花萼Calyx摘下來放入小布袋之內.
正常的情況下花仍未開放; 所以花萼內沒有種子. 今年太懶惰沒有收割, 所以才有這麼多種子.

Hi Vanda,
Only from here I learned the Chinese name "薰衣草",  but I don't know how to pronounce the word "薰", does it pronounce in Cantonese the same as the word "pocket"?
Pardon my ignorance ...

作者: vandas    時間: 2014-9-25 04:10 PM

薰 pronounce in Cantonese as 'fun'

Few years ago when I traveled Europe I found a big area growing with lavender. This was a wild area & I grabbed a bunch of lavender seeds back to the hotel. However I had put it to the restroom eventually due to the scents drove me crazy!

Thanks, so it pronounce in Cantonese like "fun yi cho" right?
I am so glad I have a few of them taking up residency in both my front and back garden;
it definitely give the word "fun" a new dimension. :)

謝謝資訊.  我很喜愛薰衣草的味道.  用它的精油按摩又可以舒緩失眠.  
它的用途真的廣泛.
