In some flowers, white streaks appear through the length of the petal.
Growth & Spread: Ornata plants are moderate growers. This variety can reach heights of up to 20 cm and spreads anywhere from 20 to 50 cm.
Period of Interest: Gentiana should be planted during the Spring season and will flower from mid-Summer through Autumn!
Plant Advice: These plants appreciate sun to partially shaded areas. Though in hotter climates are usually recommended for shelter from the intense afternoon sun. And they are good to divide and transplant in the early part of spring. They do well in lower moisture environments. And as such, can be great for rock gardens or areas filled with gravel.
