? Wet weather makes the start of the season difficult for summer cut flowers in the open field

Marketing and production companies are nevertheless experiencing good demand for snapdragons and sunflowers ??

Summer cut flowers such as Antirrhinum (snapdragon) and Helianthus (sunflower) are of course a must in bouquets and floral arrangements during the warm season. Antirrhinum cultivated in Germany has been available in good quantities and qualities from the cut flower specialists at Bloomways since mid-May. "For other crops, however, the rather wet and cold weather in May and June put the brakes on larger quantities and stem lengths," explains Paul Seelen, who is responsible for summer cut flowers at Bloomways. "Together with our growers, we are therefore hoping for warmer and more stable weather in the coming weeks."

The family business has focused entirely on the production of two types of flowers on 15 hectares of 2,500 square meters under glass, the family business specializes in the production of seasonal cut flowers. "We started the snapdragon season on 17 May we started the season with the crops under glass. This was followed from 22 May followed by the open field goods. The start of marketing and the quantities available identical to the previous year and the quality of the early sets was good. In particular, our mixed bunches with four to five different colors of the same variety were in high demand and fetched good prices achieved good prices. This season, we will be planting three more sets which will be harvested at the end of August, beginning of September," explains the 28-year-old master gardener, who has been running the business together with his father father Rainer since 2021. "With Helianthus Sonja, due to the wet weather in spring, we unfortunately unfortunately lost more than half of the plants during the first set due to the wet half of the plants. However, as the second set came straight after, we were still able to start harvesting the first sunflowers at the end of June, as in harvest the first sunflowers at the end of June. Due to the high rainfall, the low light and the cool weather, however, there is a clear lack of quantities and the stems are shorter than usual. However, as the sunflower season season runs until the end of September, things could change for the better positive if the weather plays along in the coming weeks plays along."
