We see more demand for using our Cremon type varieties as Andrea, Tusca, Pink Creation, and others as focal in bouquets and arrangements. Moreover, vintage colours are definitely marking a trend and each time more customers ask about these colours in varieties as Candid, Veronica Salmon, Trissia, Champagne Salmon and Dotan.”
For the first time in Colombia, Dümmen Orange worked with KoenPack to present its varieties in bouquets elaborated by Flores Silvestres. KoenPack showed their products and presented their company in a nice way.
