    At last. Someone in the UK explaining how to grow Eustoma! I so want to give them a try, and am now inspired. Thank you Annette!

    They ar so beautiful - some of mine have germinated in just 11 days - but be warned that they are tiny and grow really slowly until planted out.

    Thank you Annette, the Lisi are just gorgeous. I shall look forward to seeing them in flower. I don't have room to start them off myself. Such a palette of wonderful pinks and the white were just yummy.

    Thanks Penelope. Sowing these seeds has brought a bit of summer sunshine into January. The seed sowing frenzy will start in force in Feb! 😁🌱

    Я сама выращиваю лизиантус из семян, это очень красивый цветочек. Но самый красивый это "Корелли" и "Розалия".Спасибо вам за ваши уроки. Здоровья вам, всего самого хорошего.

    Fabulous tutorial. I hadn't realised that Eustoma is now Lisianthus, - a much prettier name. No wonder I couldn't find seed as putting the old name in the search engine. Such a lovely lot of varieties. May ask wheer you buy your seeds please? Thank you

    Where do you get your seeds Annette? I’ve not had much success with the packet I sowed over a month ago. One little seedling has made an appearance. I don’t have a heat mat so they’re on the kitchen windowsill

    Hi June, I got most of my seeds from Nicky's nursery and some from Plants of Distinction. They really do like it to be super warm in order to germinate, so maybe try moving them to an area above a radiator until they've germinated? Good luck.

    Can you not grow lisianthus without a heat mat?

  • @cottoverdi

    @cottoverdi

    Жыл бұрын

    Hi Marie, you can try to germinate the seed without a heat mat but it depends on the temperature of the environment because the seed will germinate when the soil temperature is between 70-75°F (21-24°C). Sometimes this can be achieved above a radiator or on top of a fridge or if your climate is warmer. Hope this helps. Thanks for watching.

    Hi Marie, I used Chiltern Seeds but also Nicky's Nursery and a few others. It's a shame but you really have to search hard. I hope you have some luck
