Lisianthus - Eustoma grandiflorum "Mariachi II Lavender"

Group 2: Starts blooming from early spring to summer

Lisianthus in lavender purple shade, with rose-shaped flowers measuring 5-7 cm in diameter.

Sow indoors about 12-13 weeks before planting out and risk of frost is over.
Light-germinating, can be covered lightly with Vermiculite to maintain a more even humidity.
Keep the seedbed moderately moist, not too wet but not too dry.

Lisianthus thrives in warm conditions (cooler during plant growth), therefore it is recommended to grow them in greenhouses.
A challenge to sow, as they take time, so be patient!

Be gentle with its delicate roots when replanting and take care that they do not become root-bound.
The plants need support, such as a net support.

Harvest when one or more of the flowers on a stem have started to open.

Please note that our seed bags are delivered in Swedish!
