Eustoma 'F1 Flamenco Mix'

Trial: Annual

Years Trialed: 1996

Good Qualities:

Customers know and want Lisianthus. Late planting makes it difficult to judge this one, however, it did remarkably well under adverse conditions (Solsberry, IN).;

Problems:

This particular mix of colors seemed ;muddy; or muted. No particularly striking.; We are working very hard this year to find the window for Lisianthus here. Our plants always live after transplanting but our stems are short and this year the grasshoppers came in and feasted on the flowers (Stillwater, OK). I think we are growing it on too warm and putting it out in the field too late.

Comments:

Similar to numerous other cultivars.

(1) 1 to 5 scale, with 5 being the best. Market ratings are based on sales to wholesalers, retailers, or final consumers direct.
