QUESTIONS & ANSWERS

Ask a Question
  • This plant says it takes extra effort in the description, can you please describe further?

    Lisianthus require good nutrient rich and well draining soil, and regular water. They won't do well with competition from weeds, so you'll want to make sure to weed regularly. So nothing too crazy, they just need a little more tending than some of the tough-as-nails plants we also love that will bloom no matter where you plant them!

  • Are ship dates based on growing zones?

    Yes! We begin shipping in April and will ship plants after your last average frost!
