Comments
This is a much better variety than any other single pink/rose I've grown; I generally don't grow single lisianthus because my customers prefer doubles but I would make exception for this one. My customers loved it; Suprised me that I got any production from these because they weren't started until mid February; Fine flower and a nice addition to any cut flower mix.
