Breeding
The road from experimental plant to consumer product is long and requires years of intensive effort. The breeding process at Florensis focuses on providing the entire supply chain with added value.
Young plants
Florensis has its own tray system. The young plant trays in their distinctive blue colour were developed from the existing hard plastic trays and have great dimensional stability.
