In this episode, Liz discusses the pros and cons of growing lisianthus, a beautiful but somewhat tricky flower. She shares her experiences and tips for successfully growing lisianthus, including the importance of buying plugs instead of starting from seed, the need for well-drained soil and plenty of sunlight, and the different bloom times of different lisianthus groups. Liz also emphasizes the profitability of selling lisianthus by the stem or using them in premium arrangements, rather than including them in lower-priced bouquets. Overall, lisianthus can be a valuable addition to a flower farm if grown and marketed correctly.

Takeaways

  • Consider buying plugs instead of starting lisianthus from seed for better success.
  • lisianthus requires well-drained soil and plenty of sunlight, but does not like to have wet feet.
  • Different lisianthus groups have different bloom times, so plan accordingly for succession planting.
  • Selling lisianthus by the stem or using them in premium arrangements can be more profitable than including them in lower-priced bouquets.
  • lisianthus has a long vase life and can be stored in a cooler for up to two weeks.
