Research update

Extending vase life and fighting grey mold

Botrytis cinerea, also known as grey mold, infects a wide variety of flowers. Some flowers are more prone to botrytis infection than others. Roses are especially sensitive to it and the infection can spread very fast. Practically all roses contain some botrytis spores before being shipped from the farms. These spores will develop further when roses encounter some type of stress, such as damaged tissue.

FloraLife states that they engineered a solution that helps stop the spores from developing into an infection. In this research update, the results of an experiment that looked at the effects of FloraLife BotrytisBloc Bundle compared to the control are shared.

The full research report can be downloaded here.
