Lisianthus or commonly know as Nandini flower, often mistaken for a rose dressed for a party, is one of the most elegant yet quirky flowers you can grow. With its silky, ruffled petals in shades of white, pink, purple, and blue, it brings instant charm to gardens and bouquets alike. It’s the kind of flower that looks like it belongs in a wedding but isn’t afraid to show up in a wildflower patch just to surprise you.

Despite its delicate looks, Lisianthus has a flair for drama—it’s notoriously fussy to grow from seed, demands well-drained soil, and insists on full sun to really shine. But treat it right, and it’ll reward you with long-lasting blooms that hold up like floral royalty. Basically, Lisianthus is your high-maintenance friend who always looks flawless in photos—and yes, you still love her for it.
