LisAdora® Apricot III Lisianthus performs best in full sun with well-drained soil and consistent moisture. Start seed indoors at least 10 to 12 weeks before last frost date in spring and set out seedlings once danger of all frost has passed. It thrives in warm weather and is typically grown as an annual in most climates, with a long blooming period from midsummer into early fall. What sets it apart is its florist-grade bloom quality, compact yet robust growth, and exceptional uniformity across plants—qualities that make it a top choice for both home gardeners and professional growers.
This seed comes as a pellet. Pelleted seeds are small seeds that have been clay-coated to make them larger and more uniform in size and shape, making them easier to handle when planting.
