Trial Started: 2005

Year of Trial: First (from 2005 report)

Good Qualities

Nice big flower heads- longer it goes in the season- the nicer the stem lengthcan use it in the green stage too; Pretty heads; Robust in field.

Problems

Such a long season crop- could get in earlier- only get good stem length in the hoop; Did not flower until late in season, lots of browning on umbels prior to cutting; Eaten by deer before flowering; About 2 weeks later than the earliest varieties in our trial: ‘Devotion Blue’, flower greenish-white rather than pure white, stem length significantly less than ‘Lake Louise Blue’.

Postharvest

Warm water – Chrysal #2.

Comments

Don’t have much luck selling white flowers- especially when purples are so nice this crop; I don’t think trachelium is a good outdoor cut for the Northeast; General comments on trial (Zone 5): Plants were transplanted to tunnel and field into shallow beds, 4 rows/bed, mulched with green plastic and trickle irrigated, two reps in field and in tunnel, an infestation of tarnished plant bugs midseason in the tunnel may have reduced yield, but difficult to see detrimental effects.
