Care Tips For The Colorful And Fragrant Freesia

The Freesia is a versatile flower that comes in many sizes, shapes and colours. Let your imagination go wild and combine different colours and different flowers! The freesia is originally from South Africa “Cape Lily of the Valley”, and it can be single or double flowered. It comes in white, yellow, orange, red, blue, pink and purple, but can also be bicoloured or multi-coloured. Many varieties have a beautiful sweet scent which makes freesias even more attractive.

The freesia is a symbol of unconditional love and innocence. Traditionally someone gives white freesias to his or her spouse after seven years of marriage, as a reminder of pure, true love.

Freesias are sensitive to ethylene. Proper treatment with Chrysal AVB prevents shrinkage and bud drop and protects against too rapid aging of ethylene. Also pretreatment with Chrysal Professional 2 ensures that the flowers are longer lasting and are open nicely.
