Jacob Langelaan, ZaboPlant:

"Tabledance lily is currently in strong demand"

One of the current stars within the OT-lily range is the pink variety ‘Tabledance’. This cultivar first came onto the market 10 years ago and has grown in popularity ever since. Especially the elegant look of the buds and the abundance when they flower, makes it a popular variety for the American, South American and Japanese market.

"‘Tabledance’ is currently in strong demand", says Jacob Langelaan from ZaboPlant. The main reason for its popularity is its abundance of buds. "Bulb size 14/16 easily gives 3 to 5 heads per stem. This feature is an important element for certain markets. It also means that there is a market for the remainder of bulb sizes, making Tabledance a very strong cultivar."

Rogier Mak from Mak Breeding BV confirms this statement. “We selected ‘Tabledance’ 10 years ago, it was one of the new generation OT cultivars from our nursery. This new generation is renowned for having stronger characteristics such as: consistent number of upward facing buds, compact bud build up, continuous flowering and an elegant, fresh colour. We already saw Tabledance’s potential a decade ago. In the meantime, it has lived up to our expectations and the success is still ongoing."
