The Good: We love the organic vibe of Lisianthus! It comes with a lot of closed blooms which make the designing process interesting. Even though the bloom itself is a bit floppy and delicate, it is typically long-lasting and hardy.
The Bad: There isn’t a lot of negatives about lisianthus. Sometimes the petals can have some brown spots, but that is typically easy to pluck off. Lisianthus is hardy, but when shipped it can look ‘smashed’, but that’s EASY TO FIX by reflexing the petals. Brown Lisianthus can have a wide variation of color tones so you have to be flexible with brown lizzy!
