rosebush auctioneer Erik Wassenaar had a interfering hebdomad . He was in Kenya and call a total of 12 farm . All are rose growers and members of Royal FloraHolland . Back in the Netherlands , he delight the beautiful autumn colors alfresco . He also sees that on the clock .

fall on the clockAutumn has begun and nature is showing its best side . The leaves change coloring and give the world beautiful autumn hues . you’re able to also see this time of year mull over in the decorative plant market . pumpkin , Oakleaves , Brassicas , and Hellebores are now uncommitted in abundance on the auction filaree . In improver , orange roses are very popular at this meter of year .

pink wine : good price at a hard timeAlthough toll for roses are normally a bit downcast at this time of year , they rest amazingly well this autumn . At the beginning of the week , we did see a diminished drop . This was due to the warm weather in the Netherlands , which increase the supply of roses on the clock . Still , the total supply of roses remain lower than anticipate . This is due to the cold and smashed weather in Kenya , which is why production is lagging . This menstruation lasts much longer than usual .

bring down growers in KenyaLast hebdomad I was in Kenya . As an auctioneer , I have regular contact with growers . It is significant to visit the nursery . We go over qualitative , but also quantitative matters concerning the mart and what Royal FloraHolland means or can mean in that respectfulness . Because Kenya is not next room access , we always plan the visits as efficiently as potential thanks to our local situation . So we were capable to visit 12 rose nurseries ( farms ) in 4 days . Long , but fruitful days . My observation was that product is slow but surely picking up . However , this does alter from farm to farm , as the production expanse are at different altitude and each has its own microclimate .

challenge for Kenyan growersKenyan growers face many more challenges . Besides weather conditions , they confront gamy air cargo costs . New European policy also mean additional cost for mandatory Plant Protection Service ( PD ) inspections and export documents . All this does not make things loose for Kenyan importer .
