Italy: Thornless green branch grown in PV greenhouse

The name is Smeralda Green Show, the new flower product completely made in Sardinia. Decorative branches exclusively cultivated and produced by Twelve Energy, the company that owns a big photovoltaic greenhouse park in Sardinia, in the town of Villasor.

Smeralda Green Show is a bright green branch with no thorns. It has a long vase-life thanks to the fact that it is an alive product, with green shoot and leaves on the top of the stem.

It is cultivated in a very particular condition, in partial shade generated from photovoltaic panels that are placed on the roof of particular greenhouses. For this reason the plants of Smeralda Green Show, looking for the light, become curved and curly, drawing elegant shapes with their long green stems.

Florists say it is a real novelty in the field that allows to create top-end decorations and high value flower compositions with little effort and cost. Its emerald green tint is the one that today’s flower trends indicate as a modern fashion color. The stems of Smeralda Green Show grows very fast, up to 1 cm a day even after they have been cut (placed in a vase with water and under enough light), that’s why it’s considered an alive stem in motion, that changes shape by ‘dancing’ and growing day after day.

Twelve Energy welcomes you in its stand where you can see and know more about Smeralda Green Show at the IPM ESSEN - Hall: 5.0 - Stand 5B32.
