Notes
'Rosanne 3 Brown' lisianthus (Eustoma russellianum 'Rosanne 3 Brown') is an annual for borders, cut flowers, and containers. It cannot take cold, and a freeze will end its season. This plant likes full or part sun and average to moist, sandy or loamy soil. The flowers are a tarnished copper to plum color, and bees and butterflies visit the blooms. Deer usually look elsewhere for a meal.
Pairs well with Bishop of Llandaff dahlia, Mondo grass, and Lemon Grass lemongrass.
