1. Limmonium sinuatum ( Statice)

2. Limmonium sinuatum Famili : Plubaginaceae = Caspea Description (1) Colour of Flower  longer time until flower dried  Everlasting Flower Colour : white, purple, pink, yellow and red Function : Filler = Caspea / Gypsophila  Corsage / bouqet Annual Perennial  same type Leaf wide enough, 2.5-10 cm, menjari, length 20 cm, Roset – flattern in soil, stack inside  stem not appear  stalk flower > 70 cm, stalk flower appear like square, bersudut, berseludang / sayap

3. Description (2) Stalk flower  branch >>>, at tip of branch  flower  ± 10 blossom Ø 1 cm  pollen&anther contrast with flower  fall when flower become old ( like paper) Flowering continously everytime

4. Limmonium sinuatum

6. Growth Requirement Altitude : > 800 m dpl, Temperature: 22– 27 0 C, Initiation : 12-16 0 C Growing-well at greenhouse Fungi  often appear Need organic material Width bedengan  80 cm Soil should be steril  fumigan (basamid) Hole planting  6 plant/m 2

7. Vegetative growth- every day / 2 D Overhead sprinkler Generative  drip irrigation  flower not sprayed by water Replanting WateringWeeding & Penggemburan Pruning & Defoliation Lighting LDP – Flowering need 16 hours  Need + light  1 month after planting  flowering compactly Lampu pijar Lampu TL Dark area min.40 lux Difficult for switch on siklic Dark area min.70 lux Siklic 10’ switch on 20’ switch off

8. Example : Power of lighting 100 watt - distance from surface soil 2-2.5 m - lamp between 2 row - distance between row : 2.4 m FertilizingOrganic & an Organic Chicken fertilizer : 0,5 – 1 kg / plant / years I. Basic fertilizer II. 2 – 10 weeks 100 g Urea + 50 g KNO3/100 l air  3 liter / m 2  1 week  1 x III. > 10 weeks 10 – 15 g NPK 15:15:15 1 – 1.5 MgSO4 / plant Spread in row, 1 month  1 x + foliar fertilizer : Vitabloom 3 gram / liter  10 liter / 100 m 2  1 week  1 x Handling of Pest and Disease

9. Harvest and Post Harvest 2.5 – 3.5 month after planting  ≠ not bloom enough ( 1/3 flower was bloom / bloom not same time ) 2 x harvest time  60 – 80 stalk/m 2 /years  1 st Harvest 40 – 50 stalk/m 2 /years  2 nd Harvest  100 – 130 stalk /m 2 /years After harvest  sensitive with dry condition  vase life <<< Solution :  cold storage - sortage : short & have pest & disease  waste Choose : Good flower, long stalk, free from pest&disease, fresh, weight per 100 g  plastic wrap Vase life  5 – 7 days
