Gomphrena QIS Rose (Gomphrena globosa) is a flowering annual with an upright habit. It is native to Central and South America and was developed as part of the professional "Quality in Seed" series. This cultivar produces rigid stems topped with spherical, clover-like rose-colored flowers that reach a mature height of 24–26 inches. These plants thrive in full sun and require well-drained soil to support their continuous blooming from early summer until the first frost. Prized for their heat tolerance and uniform performance, they are a staple for both professional cut flower production and structural landscape borders . For a high-impact floral display, consider pairing Rose QIS with companions like Limonium sinuatum (Statice), Salvia, or Zinnia elegans.
Qis Rose (Globosa) Selling Tips
Sell Rose QIS to customers looking for dependable summer performance and high quality flower heads with a color that does not fade. This series offers the exceptional stem strength and uniform flower size required for professional retail bouquets, with blooms that maintain their intense rose color even when dried. The heat-loving habit allows their garden to stay vibrant through the hottest months. Its versatility makes it an excellent choice for filler interest in both fresh floral arrangements and architectural garden displays.
Coach Your Customer Plant in a location that receives full sun to ensure the strongest stems and the most profuse rose blooms . Space your plants 12 inches apart in the garden to allow for adequate air movement and healthy upright growth. Maintain consistent soil moisture during the first two weeks after planting to help the delicate root system establish properly. These are heat-tolerant annuals that will continue to produce beautiful rose color until the first sign of frost.
General Growing Tips For Your Seedling Tray
Maintain a pH between 5.8–6.2 and provide a constant feed rate of 150–200 ppm Nitrogen. Keep your daytime temperatures between 65–75°F with nights around 60–65°F to ensure uniform plant development. Rose QIS requires high light conditions for best performance and typically finishes transplant-to-sale in 10–12 weeks.
Flowering
High-quality "everlasting" flowers appear from early summer to first frost.
Pinching
The QIS series is basal branching and does not require pinching. These varieties feature stiff stems, so unlike many other tall Gomphrena varieties, they generally do not require mechanical support or netting.
Spacing
Space Gomphrena at a density of 1–2 plants per square foot (11–21 plants per square meter).
Pests
Gomphrena are susceptible to damage by aphids and thrips.
Disease
The most frequent issues you'll face include botrytis, powdery mildew, and rust.
Planting Qis Rose (Globosa) Liners
With Gomphrena, we recommend planting one plug per 4 inch pot and 3 plugs per 10 inch container.
Rooted Cuttings
Cuttings vary in size between different plant families. These rooted starter plants will arrive ready to be transplanted in to your final container. If they are to be used in a landscape application, you will need to establish them in a 4 inch pot or an 1801 before planting outside.

Before we take this relationship any further...
It looks like this is the first time you've added anything to your cart.
We just wanted to remind you that we are a wholesale starter plant company that sells to businesses, schools, clubs, and other non-profits. State law dictates that you must be growing for resale to order from us since we are not collecting sales tax.
If we aren't a match, we understand. It's not you, it's us.
We would look awful in orange jumpsuits.
