Notes
'Rose' lisianthus (Eustoma russellianum 'Rose') is an annual with rose-like pink flowers. It cannot take cold, and a freeze will end its season. This plant likes full sun. The rich rosy-pink blooms last a long time in the vase. They open on tall, sturdy stems above dark green, lance-shaped leaves. Plants bloom from early to late summer and again in early to mid autumn.
Pairs well with Labyrinth dahlia, Lemongrass, and Star of bethlehem.
