A strong year-round programme
Day length, light intensity and temperature influence the growth and flowering of Antirrhinum. Each season and each cultivation location requires customisation. Evanthia’s broad product range offers solutions and flexibility for every situation. Our powerful Antirrhinum series can be divided into 4 groups. Each group has the right characteristics to offer top quality and a high production level in a specific period of the year. By combining our series, growers worldwide can produce an excellent, seamless year-round supply.
Please note: We recently updated and rearranged our Antirrhinum collection, to define the groups more clearly to make it even easier to plan and produce Antirrhinum all year round.
- Antirrhinum Antibes I: Ideal for energy-efficient cultivation in cool periods with low light intensity. Can be planted in the greenhouse in late summer and in winter. Abundant flowering and top quality flower stems from mid autumn to mid spring. A wide range of colours and a high level of uniformity in plant habit and flowering time.
- Antirrhinum Avignon II: Developed to perform under average light intensity and cool to moderate temperatures. A typical group II series for the less extreme seasons. Plant towards the end of summer and throughout the winter period until early spring for high production and top quality flower stems in autumn and spring. Can be grown both in greenhouses and outdoors.
- Antirrhinum Cannes II-III: Performs at top level when temperatures and light intensity rise and reach their peak. By planting this series towards the end of winter into summer, the abundant flowering and top quality flower stems already start mid spring and last until mid summer.
- Antirrhinum Orleans III-IV: Has a short cultivation period; about 8 to 12 weeks from planting. Plant from early spring until early summer, for abundant flowering and top quality flower stems from the end of spring to the end of summer
- Antirrhinum Toulon IV: Best choice for cultivation under higher temperatures and high light intensity. Plant from early spring until early summer, for abundant flowering and top quality flower stems all summer long until early autumn.Let our team help you finetune your programme, tailored to your regional climate conditions.
