A Florists Fantasy
Did you ever fantasize about having a cut flower in your shop that was….
-
Inexpensive yet elegant.
-
Came in a wide range of vibrant seasonal colours.
-
Was available year round in a range of grades and price points from 3 blooms up to 7 showy blooms per stem.
-
Looked great in bouquets, arrangements or simply on its own in a vase.
-
Had a vase life of more than 2 weeks?
Pssst…..Baron Clas Alstromer found just the flower for you in Brazil in 1753…..
It’s Alstroemeria!
Perfect Growth, Perfect Cut, Perfect Pack
In 2004 a small group of specialized growers developed a unique patented way to make good Alstroemeria great! They called it Perfection! This optimally grown and selected grade of Alstroemeria features:
-
Individually netted fully mature blooms ready to use on arrival.
-
Brighter and more intense colours with 25% larger blooms and up to 7 showy blooms per stem.
-
Longer, thicker and stronger stems and greener, healthier foliage.
-
Is only produced by growers with a commitment to social and environmental responsibility.
Choosing good Alstroemeria and making it great!
-
Only purchase Alstroemeria that has clean, deep green foliage and unblemished blooms. If the leaves look yellow, it’s probably not fresh!
-
Hydrate your Alstroemeria out of the cooler with the sleeve on in warm water treated with the proper dose of floral preservative for 3 to 4 hours before putting it in the fridge.
-
Change the water every 4 or 5 days.
-
Use of a special bulb flower treatment like Chrysal T-Bags when storing your Alstroemeria will keep the leaves deep green and stop them from yellowing.
