LISIANTHUS (Eustoma Grandiflorum)



A while back, I did a post about a flower which my florist said was called Vietnam Rose.  I did a search in the Internet but found that it was not.  Anyway, one of my blog visitors has supplied me with the actual name, Lisanthus.
Lisianthus (Eustoma Grandiflorum) is a genus of 3 species in the family Gentianaceae. Lisianthus is popular an ornamental, a potted indoor plant, and as a cut flower.  Colors of Lisianthus include white, various shades of pink, lavender, deep purple, and bicolors such as blue-violet.
