Lisianthus Corelli Sugoi (New!)

$21.00

Lisianthus are magnificent EXTREMELY long-lasting fragrance free flowers! Highly sought after by florists and in-the-know home gardeners.

In the floral industry, it’s well known that the Japanese grow the FINEST Lisianthus in the world and Corelli Sugoi is the NEWEST iteration of the famous Corelli series. In Japanese, Sugoi means “Oh WOW!” and wait until you see these blooms!

Regular Corelli Lisianthus are very ruffled with an open center — the goal with Corelli Sugoi was to breed a ruffled series with large double flowers fully petaled to the middle. And that’s definitely been achieved!

6 ready-to-transplant seedlings in super jumbo deep 6-pack

TO GROW

Space plants 5-9” apart in full sun. Ht: 25-30+”. Fertilize after every weeding. Plants appreciate some support, and we always grow them with Hortonova netting (available online or at some garden centers).

Lisianthus LOVE to be planted when soil temperatures are still on the cool side. They may not look like they’re growing at first — our plants are already 4 months old —but this is when they send down a strong root system to support their beautiful blooms in the high heat of summer.

FOR CUT FLOWERS

Be sure to snip off the first bloom on each stem (it’s perfect for a bud vase!) when it first opens. Harvest the rest of the main stem with some open flowers and some large buds — you’ll have blooms for 2-3 weeks! Often Lisianthus will send up a later flush of flowers, which will be shorter than the first flush.

FULFILLMENT OPTIONS

  • Delivery — April 23 to Lexington and nearby communities

  • Pickup — Saturday, April 25, noon - 2 p.m. at Boggs Cottage, 3808 Combs Ferry Road
