I have a lavender plant that I put in the ground last year in late spring. It started out as a very small, compact little plant. Last year, it bloomed sparingly and grew quite big. I cut down the scraggily stems in the winter. Now, it seems, that the older branches in the middle are worn out, and there is newer growth along the outer rim. What should I do? Should I cut back the inner stems? Here are some pictures I took today:

Thanks for your help.
