The Secret Behind Growing Fresh Beautiful Roses
It takes from 45 to 57 days to produce a rose in
a greenhouse, depending on variety, time of year and
especially, light conditions. Relying on Mother
Nature alone to provide enough light is a big
gamble, especially in the dark winter months of
December, January and February. One method utilized
by some rose growers is the installation of "High
Pressure Sodium" lights in their greenhouses. Having
the ability to control the amount of light the rose
crop receives dramatically improves production and
quality. In addition to extra lighting, we provide
our roses with additional carbon dioxide, increasing
growth rates. By increasing the growth rate, we are
able to cut our roses twice a day, 365 days of the
year, ensuring that we have a constant supply of the
freshest possible product. When you purchase your
roses direct from the grower, you are getting roses
that will open beautifully and last longer.
