Vinca
This common alternate name is often used for vinca.
What is periwinkle?
Angelonia is most commonly propagated using this method.
What are cuttings?
These pollinators are strongly attracted to lantana flowers.
What are butterflies & Hummingbirds?
This cool-season bedding plant is highly frost tolerant and provides reliable spring carryover.
What are Pansies?
These non-flowering vascular plants reproduce by spores.
What are Ferns?
This greenhouse condition is especially critical because vinca requires twice as much air movement as many other crops.
What is strong air circulation?
Growth slows dramatically when temperatures fall below this point.
What is 50 Degrees?
This disease commonly affects zinnias.
What is powdery mildew?
This crop performs best under long days and cool conditions and offers nearly every flower color except yellow.
What is Dianthus?
These holiday plants are tropical epiphytic cacti native to Brazil.
What are christmas cactus?
This propagation material is considered necessary for successful seed-starting of vinca.
What is vermiculite?
Recommended light levels for angelonia fall within this range.
What is between 2,000 and 5,000 foot candles?
Excessive fertilization causes lantana to stop doing this.
What is flowering?
This vertical cool-season crop can bloom 8–10 weeks and is commonly pinched at the 4th and 6th node.
What are snapdragons?
These bulbs require 6 weeks of chilling at 35–43°F before planting.
What are Easter Lilies?
Nighttime greenhouse temperatures should remain at least this warm for proper root formation.
What is 70 degrees?
Drought stress is intentionally used in angelonia production to control this.
What is excessive vegetative growth (slow plant growth)?
Zinnias should ideally be directly seeded this many weeks before first frost.
What is about 4 weeks?
Pansies should be watered down to this moisture level before allowing media to dry completely.
What is level 3 - 4 moisture?
This fern nutritional issue commonly develops when pH becomes too high.
What is iron deficiency?
This greenhouse mistake often causes damping-off in vinca.
What is overwatering?
With one pinch, a 1-gallon angelonia crop finishes in approximately this amount of time from rooted liner.
What is 5-7 weeks?
Zinnia seeds germinate best at approximately this soil temperature.
What is 70 degrees?
Snapdragons often require supplemental applications of these two micronutrients.
What are boron and iron?
This greenhouse practice is required for Christmas cactus at blackout to improve bud formation.
What is pinching off small buds?
