Consolida 'Rosy Red'

Good Qualities

Nice rose pink color (6); Flowers were nice; Looks great with the dark blue larkspur; Relatively tall main stems, many useable branches even at 6 in. spacing; Nice plant.

Problems

Too short (2); None (2); Germination wasn’t good and didn’t have many plants to work with, liked what I got, but just wasn’t enough to make a good recommendation; In the past I’ve had better luck with larkspur, we got it into the field early enough but then we had a month of no sun, rain and unusually cool weather, plants seemed stunted; Other larkspur varieties are much better.

Similar Cultivars

‘Stiletta Indigo Blue’.

Comments

Didn’t do well after transplant, too wet; It might have done even better if we had gotten it out earlier, we sold everything we picked, so I consider it a success; I tried a new compost mix which was too heavy with manure and destroyed all of the seedlings of these plants, I won’t make that mistake again!; Cornell trial yield: pinching early yielded 6 stems/plant, 27 in. long, delayed 5 days in harvest compared to the controls, tunnel-grown plants produced 39-inch main stem and 20-inch side branches.

Postharvest

Cut early in the day, kept cool and also used Floralife, strip bottom foliage before putting into buckets, seems to help with absorption; Water.
