Lisianthus Touch Of Pink Seeds

The variety of Lisianthus Touch of Pink produces spectacularly elegant pink-rimmed white, mostly double flowers that are commonly used as cut flowers (particularly weddings) due to their long stems and long-lasting performance.

Lisianthus flowers are amongst the most elegant and modern cut-flower varieties, as the beautiful colors (in this case, the pink/white) of the flowers are accented by dusted silver-green foliage providing a dramatically modern and classy display. The variety Lisianthus Touch of Pink is a F1 hybrid variety grown by commercial cut-flower growers supplying only the most discerning florists. Unlike the common species varieties that produce irregular and varied plant and floral characteristics, the Lisianthus Touch of Pink is a proven, first class, top performer.

Whilst Lisianthus plants are not the easiest flowers to grow (particularly to germinate as the seeds are tiny), provided the seeds are sown after the last frosts, the floral rewards they provide are second to none. Lisianthus plants can be grown together with Gerberas to provide a reliable source of stunningly beautiful flowers.

The seeds of Lisianthus Touch of Pink are supplied in the form of pelletised seeds for ease of handing and ensure improved germination results.

Seeds of all Lisianthus varieties are quite small and can be tricky to germinate, particularly for beginners. For best results, we recommend the use of our Plant Propagation Kit (also available from our online store).

Important note: The Lisianthus seeds supplied by The Climbing Fig™ are of the highest quality (almost all varieties are pelletised) and are exclusively of modern hybrid varieties used by commercial cut-flower growers. All of the varieties we supply have been selected for their high-quality flowers, vase-life and long stems to ensure maximum floral performance. Other sellers often list compact garden varieties that are generally difficult to germinate, hard to cultivate as the plants do not have an upright tendency and are therefore more prone to diseases. Please remember, Lisianthus plants are not frost-hardy, therefore only sow seeds either in warm or sheltered areas.
