First time visitor! I have historically had zero patience/ desire to landscape or garden, as evidenced by first picture. I got really tired of walking past a dirt patch in front of my house every day, so I tried my hand at transforming it. I had a great time watching this space change and have really enjoyed it.
I would love some feedback about what I’ve done, especially advice or any tips for improvement. I’m concerned about the watering schedule for the lavender I put down because I’m getting conflicting answers depending on what search engine I use…
Anyway, look forward to hearing some advice! Thanks

Definitely an improvement over the dirt! Lavender is relatively drought tolerant once established, and doesn’t typically need a lot of water. You will get conflicting info because you have to take into account your soil type (clay vs sand vs loam) and your weather (do you get regular rain, or is it very dry?).
Looks great
I’m in Georgia, we have that red Georgia clay
I did a mix of compost/garden soil for ~4 inches of the bed before planting, but when I planted them it was definitely a mix of clay and soil. Is that problematic?
