LISIANTHUS
Mariachi 'Carmine' (double flower)
(Texas Rose)
Photo is now 'Mariachi Carmine', and I'm very pleased with the color. It is a lot deeper pink, almost red. However the color varies some, and about 1/5th of the plants produce lighter color flowers, but still a bit deeper than the normal pink lisianthus I'm used to. I will probably continue ordering this variety for pink.
SOLD OUT for 2012.
