Challenging starting signal - upBliss Flora started doing run with Meilland roses in 2016 . " We ’ve cognise Jean Dyens for many days , and he was very confident about this variety . We therefore kick in it a go . The color was stunning - orange with drear ' burn - like ' edge , the growing was not easy , it was preponderantly producing forgetful duration principally 40 and 50 centimeters . But Dyens was so confident about this variety that he asked us to continue the tryout . We therefore placed it in another nursery and started with different mature practice and we saw a large positive change . The flowers started to search nice and they also got beneficial length . Then , the heyday started to await nice and the flush started to get length . We showed it to several who visited our glasshouse and the reaction give us trust as well . " After 2.5 yr of trialing , Bliss Flora call for exclusivity for Fiorella . " We will have it exclusive for several years for several hectares . "
conclude - up of Fiorella
Against the usualIn addition to the color , this new salmagundi work against the usual on more aspects . " peculiarly over the last years , we see that many agriculturalist are selecting straight color varieties that mainly deal well in the direct market place and just a bit in the auction . We decide to do it the other way around and choose a multifariousness that will chiefly trade on the auction , but can be partly sell on the unmediated market as well . On top of that , it ’s usually expected from mellow - EL farms like we are ( 2,400 meters above sea level ) to give rise big headway roses . This variety , however , has a intermediate forefront size , but when take heed the feedback , we see that the color makes such an impression that the head size of it is n’t that important anymore - some even say that this variety does not even take the longer stem length from a market viewpoint . "

Not flood the marketOctober 2019 , the mixture has been stick in at the auction bridge , and Sachin is pleased with the cost and reactions . " The Leontyne Price are satisfying and - every bit of import - are holding on . The reaction we get are very positive and demand is increasing . " However , quick increasing the production to meet the demand is n’t the direction Appachu want to go . " We do not want to flood the market with a variety that will only do well for a few long time . We want to have long - term steady Price from it . slow but steadily increase the production when we see it ’s necessary . allow ’s first await Christmas and Valentine ’s Day sales . Then , we can decide how to continue . " presently , 1.9 hour angle is planted with Fiorella and 1 ha is in yield , bring about 3,000 stems .
Growing well in the rainCurrently , Kenya has been get heavy rains . Due to the high humidity , lot of crops are affected , but grant to Appachu , Fiorella is doing very well . " Under these try atmospheric condition , it is beneficial to have a variety that performs well under these circumstances . "
