Notes
'Arena III Baby Pink' lisianthus (Eustoma russellianum 'Arena III Baby Pink') is an annual for borders, cut flowers, and containers. Frost will kill it, so set it out only after the last frost in spring. This plant likes full or part sun and average to moist, sandy or loamy soil. Deer tend to pass it by. Its pink blooms look like an antique tea rose. Bees and butterflies visit the flowers.
Pairs well with May Night salvia, Lemongrass, and Totally Tangerine dahlia.
