Appelkoos (Leucospermum patersonii × Leucospermum glabrum) shows an apricot, gold, and soft yellow colourway with rosy pin tips and uniform heads. Versatile for straight-line bunches, large-scale mixed bouquets, mass-market retail floral lines, and seasonal colour promotions. Native to South Africa and supplied by our grower partners in the Western Cape, grown locally for export.

Quality & Handling

• Cut and packed to export grade with consistent stem lengths and clean foliage.
• Maintained under continuous cold-chain from farm to dispatch.
• Expected vase life of 10–14 days with correct care: recut 2–3 cm on arrival, remove foliage below the waterline and hydrate in clean buckets for 4–6 hours before display (this lets heads “set” and fill out).
• Keep at 2–5 °C in transit and storage.
• Refresh water regularly and avoid sugar-rich flower foods.
• Low ethylene sensitivity but protect from excessive exposure.
