The name "Prairie Gentian" refers to a specific variety or cultivar within the lisianthus family. Lisianthus, also known as Eustoma, is admired for its beautiful, long-lasting flowers that come in a range of colors, including shades of blue, pink, purple, and white. The Prairie Gentian variety typically features a soft, pastel blue hue, which can add a gentle, elegant touch to floral arrangements. These flowers are popular in gardens and as cut flowers due to their striking appearance and the fact that they can thrive in a variety of conditions. Lisianthus plants generally prefer well-drained soil and plenty of sunlight. They are often used in floral arrangements for weddings and other special occasions because of their sophisticated and graceful look. It will take about 5 months after sowing the seeds before your Prairie Gentian blooms, so seeds should be started indoors at least 10-12 weeks before your last expected frost date. Sow the seeds in pots or trays of moistened potting soil. Barely press the seeds into the soil surface to ensure good contact. Maintain a temperature of 68°-77° until germination, which will take 10-20 days. Lisianthus seedlings are very slow growing and will take about two months to reach the four leaf stage. At this point, pinch the tips to encourage branching (dwarf varieties do not need pinching), then transplant 3 or 4 seedlings into each 6" pot. Grow on in warm, bright light until your Lisianthus can be moved to the garden after all danger of frost has passed. Growing Requirements for Prairie Gentians Prairie Gentians are heat loving plants that bloom best where nights are warm. They do not perform well in the Pacific Northwest or other areas with rainy, humid summers. They can be grown in greenhouses for winter time cut flowers. Lisianthus are only hardy in USDA zones 9-11. Ideally, your Lisianthus should be planted in full sun, with some afternoon shade in hot summer regions. Lisianthus grow best in reasonably fertile garden soil, but it must be well-drained. The soil pH should be near neutral to slightly alkaline. For the best results, water regularly and deeply to keep the soil evenly moist, but well established Prairie Gentians will tolerate short periods of drought. Eustoma are tap-rooted plants that resent being moved, so they should only be transplanted when it is absolutely necessary, and this must be done with extreme care.
