Abstract

Lisianthus (Eustoma grandiflorum) is a relatively new cut flower. Sakata Seed Company was the first to offer lisianthus as a new cut flower in the United States in the early 1980s. Growers and consumers alike were anxious to try lisianthus because it has elegant and beautiful flowers in 15 colors, the flowers have a long vase life, and there are few “blue” flowers available in the cut flower market.

Publication date August 2003. Originally published as a booklet by IFAS Communication Services June 2003.
