How does this state-of-the-art breeding work? The breeding process, which is induced by radiation therapy, triggers random color differences. It is a one-step process that accelerates the development of novel valuable traits, such as the expression of flower color. Since it uses a plant’s own genetic makeup, the plant’s other horticultural characteristics remain exactly the same. It is forcing and expediting the natural process of spontaneous color variations. This means that when you select varieties from within a family, all colors are genetically matched for size, flower magnitude, and timing— the only difference is the flower color.

Our mum families successfully combine grower needs with consumer demand. Our goal in breeding is to ensure reliability and consistency of characteristics for flawless production programmability. These genetically-identical varieties within each family are easier to grow, offering consistency you can trust across habit, response time and flowering longevity. They can be mixed and matched with ease for small or large containers, delivering retail programs with timing you can count on.
