Delta Pro Grower Story
After 25+ years of growing Delta® pansies, Hecker Gartenbau endorses the next evolution - Delta® Pro. Discover enhanced uniformity, improved colors, and better production efficiency. When a family business that's been there from the start calls it "a great step forward," you know it's worth exploring.
The family-owned company Hecker Gartenbau in Düsseldorf has been producing Delta® pansies since the very beginning, over 25 years ago. This year they have tested the new Delta® Pro series in open field production.
“We started with the Roc series series and moved to the Delta® series, which compared to Roc, was much more uniform and easier to harvest. Over time, the series expanded a lot in colour and improvements. The Delta® Pro series, which I have grown this year, again was a great step forward. The uniformity and habit of the plant has improved and makes our production much more programmable. Also the individual flower colours, as well as the foliage.
I am especially enthusiastic about the new red and the new orange, because up to now these were always the varieties that were a little more difficult to produce. The golden yellow in the assortment is a very nice addition as well. The flowering stability and shelf life of each individual variety has now again been improved in this Delta® Pro Series. The series is definitely a good extension and further development of the Delta® series. I am also really excited about the beautiful new colours to come and they are definitely worth a try.”
