Matthias Meilland of Meilland. He is holding the drift potted rose. This potted rose variety is very popular in the US and is making its entrance in France. This disease resistant variety is easy to care and needs less water and less cutting. According to Meilland, the demand in Europe will increase as the French law does not allow any use of pesticide in landscape flowers.
