Notes
'Voyage 2 Lavender' lisianthus (Eustoma russellianum 'Voyage 2 Lavender') 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. Deer rarely make it their first choice. Its large, ruffled lavender blooms suit cutting and attract butterflies and bees. The plant stays compact, and it tolerates drought.
Pairs well with May Night salvia, Karl Foerster feather reed grass, and Creme de Cognac dahlia.
