If you love eustoma as tenderly as many other flower growers, you would probably like the plant to delight you with its flowering with the arrival of spring.

In this case, there is no need to delay - since the flower blooms 5 months after sowing, it should be sown in November.

An expert of the online publication "BelNovosti", agronomist, landscape designer Anastasia Kovrizhnykh told what needs to be prepared for sowing eustoma.

First, you need to decide on the type of eustoma and buy seeds.

Secondly, you need to select a suitable container and start preparing the soil mixture.

Once these two conditions are met, you can begin sowing by placing the seeds in containers 3-5 cm deep.

Some growers prefer to germinate eustoma in peat tablets, but some farmers do not like this idea - they dry out too quickly.

After you have finished sowing, do not forget to provide the plant with additional lighting in the form of phytolamps - in winter, with its short daylight hours, it is simply necessary.
