Description

Heat and humidity, meet Colossus.

  • Tight, non-stretching habit developed specifically for high-density production requiring fewer PGRs—well-suited for late summer/early fall markets.
  • Extra large blooms stand up to heat stress with less stretch even under hot and humid conditions.
  • Fast turns, lower productions costs, increased shipping efficiencies, and a long shelf life—what’s not to love about Colossus?

Do you have any resources for protecting my flowers during shipping so they last longer at retailers and for consumers?

Yes, during transport, plants experience a lot of stress and when plants are stressed they can release ethylene. Higher temperatures, enclosed spaces, and damage to the plants increase the ethylene concentrations in the shipping environment.
