Flower Production Type - "Cut and come again", "Semiproductive" or "One and done"
When growing cut flowers, it is good to know how different plants produce their flowers. Some bloom repeatedly, while others produce a single magnificent bloom. To make it easier to choose the right variety for your garden, we have divided them into three groups:
- "Cut and come again" (Repeat flowering)
These varieties constantly produce new flowers as long as they are harvested regularly. After each cut, the plant is stimulated to set new side stems.
- "Semiproductive" (Limited reflowering)
These bloom more than once, but more limitedly and not as intensely as above. They may produce a few extra flowers from side shoots after the main stem has been harvested, but with stems that are often slightly shorter.
- "One and done" (Single flowering)
These varieties bloom only once. Often with a magnificent large flower. Once the flower is harvested, no new ones will come.
By mixing all three in your cultivation, you get both a long harvest season, but also spectacular flowers for cutting!
