Good Qualities

Nice stem strength/girth, strong without being too bulky, the color was very pleasing to the eye and received lots of praise from our various audiences; Good head and stem size, fragrant; Scent is great, colors were nice; We grew the blue, salmon, pink, light pink, cream and lavender, all did well in the greenhouse and we sold them all, it would be fun to try them again.

Problems

Nothing to note; None, was a bit slower to bloom than other Vivas varieties; Flower heads small – I am not sure if this is a weather or fertility issue, I cannot tell double from single so waste a lot of space; I seeded these but think they went out too late to do anything, probably better early in a hoop house.

No comments made by trialers.

Comments

I had some seed left and just did another small planting of both cultivars in the trial, I am really looking forward to seeing how they do over the winter in the field, fall planted stock typically gives us 24″+ stems in January-early February; I’d love an all double mix!; It was a nice stock and I was surprised how tall they got in the greenhouse since they were planted in the spring and not the fall, they would be worth another try.

Postharvest

Water quality/care for organic post harvest handling of stock is really something I should apply for an ASCFG research grant (Yes, you should! Editor comment); Floralife, keeps well in cooler; Did fine no matter what we did; Hydrogen peroxide.
