Length

Aspalathus excelsa is a fine-textured green filler foliage, grown in South Africa and valued for its feathery, pine-needle appearance. The colour range spans fresh bright green through to deeper green tones, depending on seasonality and maturity. Its airy form and layered texture make it an excellent option for straight-line bunches, large-scale bouquet assembly, and mass-market retail floral programmes. Though the genus Aspalathus is native to South Africa, commercial cultivation in the Western Cape ensures consistent supply for export.
