Notes
'Voyage 2 Yellow II' lisianthus (Eustoma russellianum 'Voyage 2 Yellow II') 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. It bears large, ruffled yellow and cream blooms that attract butterflies and bees. It is not a favorite of deer, though hungry deer will eat almost anything. Cut the stems for bouquets.
Pairs well with Pineapple sage, Stock, and Lemongrass.
