Edit Florist & Wholesaler Information

Florist & Wholesaler Information

  •  A range of interesting greens and foliages are grown in California.
  • Watch out for soft tips season in April to June, where new spring growth can cause lighter colored, softer, weaker foliage tips on certain foliages liek Euc, Myrtle andmany more. The product is still available at this time, but some people find the tips not to their liking. Ask your rep if you need reassurances.

Grading Information

  • Many of these foliages are field bunched and have varying grading standards. The specifics are noted in the variety information.

Grower and Breeder Information

  • Leading Breeders: Helix Australia, Nir Israel
  • Waxflower is ethylene and botrytis sensitive and must be STS treated to avoid bloom shattering.
  • Newer varieties with better vase life and structure demonstrate better market demand.
  • Should not be shipped with "bearding" or "bypass" growth above the flower blooms but 5cm in late season is still acceptable.
  • Most of the recent, improved Hybrid varieties are protected by law under the Plant Breeders Rights and cannot be grown without paying royalties.
  • Newer, improved Waxflower varieties are commonly sold at a premium price over older traditional varieties.
