Eustoma 'Heidi Champagne'

Trial: Annual

Years Trialed: 2000

Good Qualities

Color (2); Good stems, no rosetting; Single flower, later to bloom than Avila, Catalina and Balboa; Can’t say enough, no rust or disease.

Problems

Probably needed to get this one started earlier in the season; We got hot fast this year; But what a color; Champagne color looks dirty to customers; None.

Comments

Reasonable spray, variable timing, light pink, blush color, small color; One layer of support, Outstanding color but very late (August/September) (Zone 5). Eustoma takes a lot of attention after germination.
