Lisianthus is a perennial herbaceous flower that blooms in its natural state in the summer months, between June and September. Currently produced in greenhouses, lisianthus is a flower that is available in florists all year round. Lisianthus is a flower that grows forming a rosette of intense blue-green leaves, under which a rigid stem develops that can reach between 40 and 60 cm. Capable of continuing to grow even after being cut, a single stem can produce between eight and ten buds, which do not open all at once, but rather gradually, so we can enjoy its flowering for a long time.
