Stock Milla Light Pink Selling Tips
Sell Milla Light Pink to customers looking for a "bridal-quality" pastel and that legendary garden fragrance for their early season arrangements . This series is a favorite among professional florists because it offers incredible stem strength and uniform flower density that holds up beautifully in vase work . Your buyers will love that these ruffled spikes stay vibrant and fill a room with scent for 5 to 8 days in a vase . Since it excels in cool temperatures, it allows you to offer a high-color, high-fragrance product while many other summer plants are still weeks away from blooming .
Coach Your Customer Select a planting site that receives at least six hours of full sun to ensure the sturdiest stems and the most fragrant blooms . Keep the soil consistently moist during the first few weeks to help the root system establish properly in the cool spring soil . Remember that these are cool-season specialists; they will provide beautiful color and scent until the high heat of mid-summer arrives . Never pinch the main stem, as these plants produce their primary flower on a single, majestic central leader .
General Growing Tips For Your Seedling Tray
For professional greenhouse production, transplant one rooted liner per 4-inch container using a high-quality, well-drained medium . Maintain your media pH between 5.8 and 6.5 and provide a constant fertilizer feed of 175 to 225 ppm Nitrogen . As a cool-weather crop, finish Milla Light Pink with daytime temperatures of 55 to 65°F and night temperatures of 50 to 60°F to ensure high quality and prevent flower bud drop . This variety typically finishes from transplant to sale in approximately 10 to 12 weeks . Provide maximum light levels throughout production and monitor closely for environmental stressors .
Pinching
It is vital that you never pinch Milla Stock; these plants are genetically programmed to put all their energy into one magnificent central flowering spike.
Spacing
For greenhouse production, we recommend spacing your 4-inch containers 6 to 7 inches apart on center . This spacing is critical to allow for necessary airflow and sunlight penetration, which are the best preventative measures against foliar diseases and stem legginess .
Pests
Regularly scout your crop for aphids and thrips, which can damage the tender young growth and developing buds .
Disease
High humidity can trigger botrytis, powdery mildew, or downy mildew .
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.

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.
