Late summer is the time to trim your lavender, just after it's finished flowering. Go over with the shears removing the flower spikes and around 2-3cm of the leafy growth encouraging the plants to put out side-shoots, keeping them bushy. Not trimming them back risks the plants becoming leggy - and you won't be able to renovate them later by cutting back into stems which have turned woody as they won't regenerate
