Hi All 

any idea why my lavender might be wilting.  The leaves look healthy and green.

    Cold weather damage from the last few nights that were unseasonably so...or maybe a passing dog or cat having a little "spray"?

    I’d put it down to the chilly nights we had recently. 

    I think if it was dog or cat related the lower leaves would be affected too.

    Thanks all. 

    Should I cut the buds off?

    I would.  They’re not going to recover. 

    Try giving it some rose or clematis feed .., or tomato feed .., might encourage it to produce some more buds. 🤞
