Hottest sellers of 2024
When looking at the hottest sellers of 2024, he starts with two of their favorite cactus varieties for 2024 that they have had continued success with, namely The Gymnocalycium mihanovichii "Tye Dye" and Astrophytum asterias.
"The name Tye Dye was given to these cacti for their intense swirling patterns of colors.
"Also, the Astrophytum asterias with unique patterns of dots, lines and waves make it truly striking with no two cacti alike. This has been a much 'hotter' item than we anticipated, web shops, and nurseries just loved this offer of this product by Fleurizon."
Next is the Albuca spiralis 'Frizzle Sizzle'. "It continues to be some of our hottest selling starter material due to its unique curls and interesting white vanilla scented flowers. This fits especially in succulent programs, indoor programs and web shops. We ship these bulbs worldwide."
Their new introduction of varieties of Curcuma for 2024 also continues to be a big hit with their customers. "Most notably Curcuma Beauty Princess was one of our most popular introductions to our line of Curcuma."
The Fleurizon Times
In 2024 Fleurizon also started their own newspaper "The Fleurizon Times", a weekly informational column on all things Fleurizon. "It is printed every Thursday and we send it around via email."
2025 favorites – high demand for container material
Looking to 2025 their most anticipated piece of news is the large increase in demand for material that they ship via sea container, Pettorini says. We offer a large collection of starter material Fleurizon ships via sea container. Below are a few of our favorite and most popular with our customers."
Cycas Revoluta or 'Sago palm' has been an extremely popular seller for them. Low maintenance, drought tolerant and sun loving with elegant foliage is sure to be a winner as an addition to any grower's program."
Pachira aquatica or 'Money tree' is another one of their hottest selling container material. "Both in braided and single stem the braided stems on the Pachira make them a beautiful and unique stand out among other house plants."
"Echinocactus grusonii or 'Golden barrel cactus' Is a beautiful cactus that is great for desert gardens, rock gardens succulent Gardens and for decorative containers."
"Sansevieria laurentii and superba are two all time classic varieties of Sansevieria are just that an indoor house plants staple."
Farms with 30 years of growing experience
"In addition to the above container material, we are also proud to continue to work with several quality farms producing excellent varieties of short Sansevieria, Agaves and many more that can be shipped via air freight. These farms bring over 30 years of growing experience and our customers agree it shows in the product received. "
Expansion of sales and varieties available from grass farms
Farms they look forward to continue working with in 2025 are their grass farms located in Eastern Europe and Africa. "We have worked with these farms closely for many years but 2025 will mark a great expansion of sales and varieties available. With superior quality and record high order fulfillment. Our partnership will ensure the best year yet for Fleurizon Grass offerings. Email us for great pricing for the quality product."
