NL: "The effortless Cyclamen with unique appeal"

Schoneveld Breeding has introduced the Super Serie Fusion Midi; "an uncomplicated Cyclamen persicum that stands out with its unique aesthetics". Initially featuring only the large-flowered Fusion Large, the Super Serie Fusion family is now welcoming its smaller sibling, Fusion Midi, to the market. "Fusion Midi showcases a striking floral pattern and is incredibly easy to cultivate. It's a fantastic addition to the greenhouses of many of our clients," says growing advisor Herbert van Gijtenbeek.

"Starting this season, Super Serie Fusion Midi is commercially available in three vibrant colors," he enthusiastically adds. The Neon Pink, Violet, and Wine Red all share the same distinctive floral pattern, with each petal displaying a clear separation between the white and colored sections. "It's a beautiful gift from nature that our breeders have successfully incorporated into the Super Serie genetics," Herbert explains.

Easy-to-cultivate bicolor
"With Fusion Midi's foundation rooted in our Super Serie Allure, it becomes an easy-to-cultivate Cyclamen," he continues. "You can easily grow Fusion Midi alongside standard Cyclamen varieties." Herbert highlights that the extended blooming period, combined with its attractive bicolor foliage, makes Fusion Midi a highly desirable product. "Fusion is an eye-catching Cyclamen, and its colors only improve throughout the long flowering phase."

Herbert also notes that Fusion Midi is not 100% uniform, with some solid and/or flamed flowers appearing. "Light and temperature at the beginning of the season influence the proportion of solid and/or flamed flowers in Fusion Midi. That's part of the process," he emphasizes, adding that this variability does not impact its marketability.

Abundant blooms
The vibrantly colored petals are plentiful as well. "As with our other Cyclamen Super Serie, each leaf represents a potential bud. Because Fusion Midi has so much foliage, its blooming period is about a week later than that of the Allure. But the result is a stunning eye-catcher," Herbert remarks. He describes Fusion Midi as a true retail Cyclamen, just like the Allure.

Uncomplicated Cyclamen
Additionally, Fusion Midi is an appealing product for growers due to its low maintenance requirements. "The plant blooms so uniformly that one quick harvesting session captures most of the cultivation," he explains. According to Herbert, this uniformity, combined with rapid flowering, is highly valued by growers. The round plant structure, compact growth, and central blooming with sturdy stems are all present in Fusion Midi. "Super Serie Fusion Midi is an uncomplicated Cyclamen. With its early flowering and exceptional flower colour, it's a valuable asset for growers."
