Marginpar's Chooses Chrysal for Best Clematis Care
If you would name one grower organization that supplies the perfect clematis cut flowers year-round, then probably Marginpar pops up first. Quality Assurance Manager Werner van Sprang explains that Chrysal is integrated in a big part of the growth and supply chain:
"Currently, we use Chrysal products in all our commercial varieties, with fine-tuned individual recipes for each variety. At the post-harvest stage, we determine what is the best recipe.
Clematis is a grateful flower and if you treat her right, she has a vase life of ten days minimum. When preparing the clematis for your bouquet or arrangement, use clean sharp scissors to cut off the bottom part of the stem. Note: do not cut at the node.
As for nutrition, we recommend Chrysal (universal) flower food. If you remove some of the foliage, the flowers will last even longer. Make sure to take off a few of those leaves if you like your clematis to shine for at least those ten days."
