Geraldton Wax Nir (Chamelaucium uncinatum) is a prolific waxflower cultivar producing abundant clusters of lavender-pink blooms with a delicate, airy texture. Native to Western Australia but cultivated in South Africa by OZ Flora’s supplier farms, this variety is valued for its high flower count per stem and even flowering pattern. Nir is well suited to supermarket floral ranges, straight-line bunches, mass-market bouquets, and seasonal retail promotions where reliable colour and volume are required.

Quality & Handling

• Cut and graded to export standard under strict cold-chain management; stems are selected for length, straightness, and branching uniformity with clean foliage and vibrant flower colour
• Expected vase life of 7–10 days under standard conditions; with optimal hydration and hygiene may last up to 12–14 days
• Re-cut stems by 2–3 cm at an angle and place immediately into clean, sanitised buckets of fresh water with a hydration solution or floral preservative to assist uptake; woody stems can be slow to rehydrate if untreated
• Allow at least 4–6 hours of conditioning before onward distribution or use
• Moderately ethylene sensitive — exposure may trigger petal shatter and leaf drop, so ethylene protection is advised during shipping and storage
