Seller: ALLIKASILM
About this product
Lisianthus “Arena 3 Gold” F1 (Eustoma grandiflorum) is a hybrid from the Arena series, bred above all for cutting. Strong, long stems carry elegant, rose-like double flowers that are perfect for bouquets and special-occasion arrangements.
Lisianthus has a long growing season: it takes around 5-6 months from seed to flower, so sowing starts as early as December to February. It flowers in the second half of summer. It grows well in a sunny, sheltered spot and under glass; cut stems last a long time in the vase.
The pack contains 5 seeds.

Advice from our agronomist
Do not cover the seed. Lisianthus seed is tiny and needs light to germinate: place it on moist compost, cover with film and keep at +20-24 °C. Water with a mister so the seed is not washed down.
Be patient with seedlings. For the first months they grow very slowly; keep them in good light and never let the compost dry out or become waterlogged.
Plant out in June. After the frosts set plants 15-20 cm apart. Taller stems need support.
