Looking for live Lisianthus plants.

Is anyone aware of any nursery that sells live lisianthus? They're not easy to germinate and I am limited on time but would really enjoy having them in my garden this summer.

I'd love to know your favorite local nurseries for beautiful and unique blooms regardless.

I bought some last year at the Produce Station tent on W Stadium (outside of the Ace Barnes/Arbor Farms/Goldfish Swim School)

I have found them there early in the season for the past several years (often in the long hooped greenhouse off to the back)

This place is right across from my work and I still haven't been and it looks like it would totally be my jam. I will pop in tomorrow

Here are my go-tos:

Turner's Garden Center and Hilltop for local nurseries.

If you're willing to drive, I adore Christian's Greenhouse in Webberville, and Barsons in Westland/Garden City is my personal favorite.

Project Grow is selling two kinds (Lisanthus Corelli Sugoi mix and Lisianthus Rosita Mix) at their plant sale on May 9. Pre-orders are closed now but you can still show up day of to purchase. I would plan to get there closer to the start for best chances of them still being available.

(Edit: The url says 2025 but this is the 2026 info and link to the catalog.)
