Love that you shared the origins of the plant! I learn a lot from start to finish information like that.

[@farmerbaileyplugs]

Thank you, Shelby! We're so glad to hear this is helpful for you! ~felicia

Loved the video, so much information! This is my second year trying to grow them from seed. Presently getting plugs is not in the budget so growing information for me is key. Thank you.

[@farmerbaileyplugs]

You are very welcome, Patricia. Growing from seed is a great skill! ~Felicia

[@dig_grow_cook]

Thanks for all that you share! I am a home gardener (for now) and appreciate your videos. I also very much enjoyed your Instagram lives. I am trying Lisianthus from seed for the first time and wow. Plugs are the way to go! Haha. 💚 Thanks again!

I got here to this video from the Farmer Bailey email. What a fantastic resource! Thank you for sharing. So neat to hear about the breeding efforts in Japan and all the different varieties. This is the first season I'm growing lisianthus, and I started some from seed (got good, consistent germination but they have stayed quite small) and bought some plugs (they are ready to transplant this weekend). I'm going to try planting some in my high tunnel and some in the field. I'll also try removing some of the first buds and see how that goes. Basically, I'm treating this as a learning season, trying different things, taking notes, and hoping that I'll have some Group 3 still flowering in time for my early fall backyard wedding.

Thank you for seeing us, Tanya! Lisianthus Forever! ~felicia

[@cbak1819]

I think I have unfavorable growing conditions for seedling in my home. Living in the north US. This is my first time growing Lisian's as I refer to them😊 Only time will tell. Thanks again for all your help! God bless.

[@farmerbaileyplugs]

The humidity required would make your home a soggy place! Let's leave it to the experts. Thanks for tuning in! ~Felicia

I grow Lisanthus in my indoor grow room in zone 5 over winter for spring planting. LED lights and coolosh soil after germinating. While growing- moisture control IS key. Lisianthus LOVES small soil blocks! I bump some of them up to large soil blocks.

[@berizzle]

Great video. I’ve ordered lisianthus and other plugs from you for three years now with this seasons showing up this March in North Carolina. It’s a great service. I still try to grow from seed but it almost always goes horribly.

[@farmerbaileyplugs]

Thanks so much for trusting us to supply your plugs. Good on you for growing from seed, it's not easy! We save our energy for doing the fun part. Would love to see photos of your blooms this summer! ~Felicia

[@vivherman2296]

Small market grower..always Voyage/Roseann brown. I don't get really tall stems out in my small field. But, they do fine for my bouquets in re-cycled glass containers or jars. Thx. for great info.!!

[@farmerbaileyplugs]

Thank you so much for watching! If you want longer stems, try increasing your watering/ fertilization schedule and adding Hortonova netting to your Lisi! ~felicia

E una bellissima pianta mi piace tanto

[@Hofoase-mg6qn]

Great information, do you ship to germany?

[@farmerbaileyplugs]

Hi there, thanks for checking us out! We only ship to the USA at this time. Our growers are all located in the USA and the young plants would not survive an overseas journey & customs. ~felicia

[@tanyakilbane7636]

Am I to late to purchase plugs this year? I need some rosanne brown! Purple ones too!

[@tanyakilbane7636]

Would it be to late to plant out June 1 zone 5b?

[@farmerbaileyplugs]

@@tanyakilbane7636 Hi Tanya - Lisianthus planting is timed by your last outdoor frost, not zone. It is likely to late for grown-to-order plugs for you. However, you can check out our Ready to Ship selections which are listed most Fridays. More info about that here: farmerbailey.com/pages/about-available-now-trays

[@tinyhomestead6023]

One more question of triple digits during our summers. Should I cover them with shade cloth?

[@farmerbaileyplugs]

Yes, you can shade them a bit. ~felicia

[@tinyhomestead6023]

This is my first year! I order 3 types and need any help to understand how to care for them! Wondering if I need a low tunnel. I'm in zone 8 and delivery on May 6th

[@farmerbaileyplugs]

Hi there! The video above is a comprehensive class on how to grow Lisianthus - did you have specific questions that were not covered? You can grow Lisianthus in the field, with no tunnel at all. You can also consult Bailey's Lisianthus Growing Guide for more tips and strategies for success. farmerbailey.com/pages/lisianthus-growing-guide

Great video ❤❤!! Do you export to the Caribbean? Would 💕 that. Blessings

[@farmerbaileyplugs]

Hi there! @@PansieAtkinson We are not able to export plugs. Farmer Bailey growers ship to the lower 48 states and Alaska. Thanks for checking us out!
