Yes, they DO open. My husband got them for me last Feb 14. And a closed bud has opened yesterday, that around 6 days.

I just got a super flat bunch of Lisianthus so I came straight to your videos for advice. Thank you! What are your thoughts on flower food?

[megan-kexw]

Do they need to be refrigerated? I thought the website said they could

[elenastouse]

Thank you! Helped so much! Would you consider making a video on working with ivy, please? ☺️

When do you suggest reflexing them? Right before working them into arrangements or when you're first receiving your flowers.

I love the flower and bud together but that's just me :)

[JoeBlack-cwyv]

When should I reflex roses, carnations, and lisianthus? On arrival (wed), the next day (thur) or the day of designing (fri)? Thanks!

Do you ever purchase from flower Farmer's?? I have Lisianthus growing and they are perrennial here in north central Florida!!
I have contacted several florist, and this will be my first season for growing flowers as a business.
Curious minds?!

I've done many flower arrangements with Lisianthus and, in my experience, the buds DO open with time :)

Just a note: if you buy lisianthus from a local flower farmer, they won't be smooshed and shouldn't have botrytis. This was the biggest complaint from florists this year. After seeing the locally grown ones, they are excited to work with it again. And many flower farmers are very willing to grow the varieties you need.
