    12:04 am really inspired to try these beautiful plants. Better buy seed quickly as its 20 Jan!!

    • @cottoverdi
      @cottoverdi  8 หลายเดือนก่อน

      They ar so beautiful - some of mine have germinated in just 11 days - but be warned that they are tiny and grow really slowly until planted out.

    At last. Someone in the UK explaining how to grow Eustoma! I so want to give them a try, and am now inspired. Thank you Annette!

    Hi, where do you get the seeds from I can only find one variety on chiltern seeds

    • @cottoverdi
      @cottoverdi  ปีที่แล้ว

      Hi Marie, I used Chiltern Seeds but also Nicky's Nursery and a few others. It's a shame but you really have to search hard. I hope you have some luck

    • @mariebutler6912
      @mariebutler6912 ปีที่แล้ว

      Hi, how long do they need to stay n the heat mat and is a hated propagator ok to use instead?

  • @penelopehammerton2907
    @penelopehammerton2907 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Thank you Annette, the Lisi are just gorgeous. I shall look forward to seeing them in flower. I don't have room to start them off myself. Such a palette of wonderful pinks and the white were just yummy.

      Thanks Penelope. Sowing these seeds has brought a bit of summer sunshine into January. The seed sowing frenzy will start in force in Feb! 😁🌱

    • @cottoverdi
      @cottoverdi  ปีที่แล้ว

      Hi, if you live in UK, try Chiltern Seeds, Nickys Nursery Ltd and Plants of Distinction

  • @bewoodford2807

    Fabulous tutorial. I hadn't realised that Eustoma is now Lisianthus, - a much prettier name. No wonder I couldn't find seed as putting the old name in the search engine. Such a lovely lot of varieties. May ask wheer you buy your seeds please? Thank you

    • @cottoverdi
      @cottoverdi  9 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      Thanks Be. I've bought from various places in the past. Nickys Nursery, Chiltern Seeds etc.

    • @bewoodford2807
      @bewoodford2807 9 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      thank you. I am going to buy from Nicky's nuraseary as she has some tomato varieties I want to grow and may as well gt them from the same place to save postage.@@cottoverdi

    Я сама выращиваю лизиантус из семян, это очень красивый цветочек. Но самый красивый это "Корелли" и "Розалия".Спасибо вам за ваши уроки. Здоровья вам, всего самого хорошего.

    • @cottoverdi

      Thanks. Carol. I, too, love the champagne. I'm still waiting for them to germinate 😬 being patient but it's difficult 😄

  • @mariebutler6912
    @mariebutler6912 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Can you not grow lisianthus without a heat mat?

    • @cottoverdi
      @cottoverdi  ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Hi Marie, you can try to germinate the seed without a heat mat but it depends on the temperature of the environment because the seed will germinate when the soil temperature is between 70-75°F (21-24°C). Sometimes this can be achieved above a radiator or on top of a fridge or if your climate is warmer. Hope this helps. Thanks for watching.

    Great info on lisianthus where do you buy all the different varieties from ?

    • @cottoverdi
      @cottoverdi  ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Hi Suzanne, I got most of my Lisi seeds from Nickys Nursery Ltd and some from Plants of Distinction. 🌸

    I hope you will show us how you pot these seedlings on, the progression from seed to flower 🌺

    • @cottoverdi
      @cottoverdi  ปีที่แล้ว

      Hi Diane, I absolutely will. I'm hoping to create a series of Lisianthus videos because I know they can be daunting to sow from seed. Thanks for watching. 💚🌸

    @junewhiteman5846 ปีที่แล้ว

    Where do you get your seeds Annette? I’ve not had much success with the packet I sowed over a month ago. One little seedling has made an appearance. I don’t have a heat mat so they’re on the kitchen windowsill

    • @cottoverdi
      @cottoverdi  ปีที่แล้ว

      Hi June, I got most of my seeds from Nicky's nursery and some from Plants of Distinction. They really do like it to be super warm in order to germinate, so maybe try moving them to an area above a radiator until they've germinated? Good luck.
