Plant height — Limonium sinuatum

Limonium sinuatum (L.) Mill.

A variability trait of Limonium sinuatum habit, ranging from 25-30 cm to 90 cm, which determines the use of a variety in commercial floriculture or landscape design.

In the reference 14 varieties crop Statice, where this is mentioned in the description.

The plant height of Limonium sinuatum varies from 25-30 cm for dwarf forms to 90 cm for tall ones. The trait is defining for variety classification: forms with a height of 60 cm or more are used primarily as a cut flower crop for floristry, while dwarf varieties are used for borders and container planting.

Cultivation technology directly depends on the height of the flower stalks. Tall varieties require the installation of supports or supporting nets to prevent lodging, whereas dwarf forms do not need support. In production conditions, height is measured during the active flowering phase along the upright, leafless flowering stems, with the value of the indicator significantly depending on the level of nitrogen nutrition and plant density.
