Little plastic bag over the top.

So when the water comes off it, it hits the top of the bag and comes back down and keeps it moist while it's trying to root.

The whole idea is to get it to root before it gets waterlogged.

So what happens is you'll see little top growth of it.

So take the bag off, have a look underneath and see if you see any white little roots poking down, then you know it's rooted.

So take the bag off and then just keep an eye on it.

Better to take it out of that situation, put it into a slightly shaded area so it doesn't get burnt.

And then you can pot it on then in...

It's to be treated mean.

You know, it's a herb.

It's basically a side of mountains plant.

And the problem is we have a lot of rain in the winter and it doesn't like that.

So if your pot got waterlogged, that's a huge problem for lavender.

So if you're putting it in a pot, loads of grit and stones and all sorts of that sort of thing and a big heavy kind of mix of compost mixed through that.

So there's loads of drainage.

Make sure that, you know, your pot is on these little legs that you can get.

So the drain, you know, the water drains out.

essential.

Sometimes people cut them at the wrong time.

So they flower.
