New Cultivars We Know You'll Love

Recently, many professional flower farmers have shifted their focus from growing and selling flowers to breeding new varieties. Through years of careful breeding, these new varieties have been developed to highlight certain traits such as color, size, form, petal count, vase life, stem length, disease resistance, and days to maturity.
