Lisianthus Russell Echo F1 Pink Pikoti

A perennial plant grown as an indoor and annual plant. Delicate terry white flowers with a pink border, similar to roses, retain their decorative effect for a long time. "Echo F1" - flowers with long peduncles suitable for cutting and arranging bouquets.

The soil is light. Add sand, peat and crushed bark or orchid substrate to the soil. Coolness is desirable for growing Lisianthus: the optimum air temperature is 18-22 ° C. Lisianthus needs a bright location, but it needs to be shaded from direct sunlight. Water only when the topsoil is dry. Winter temperature is not higher than 15°C. If the faded stems of Lisianthus are not cut very low (leaving at least two pairs of leaves on the preserved part of the stem), then new peduncles will soon grow from them. Seeds are sown on the surface of the soil in small pots with moist peat soil and placed in a warm (+ 20-25 ° C) and bright place. Shoots appear in 10-14 days. When the height of the seedlings reaches 10-12 cm, they are transplanted to a permanent place in nutrient soil.
