Leucospermum Ayoba® Red™
Leucospermum Ayoba Red presents saturated scarlet to fire-red pincushion heads with tiny golden pollen presenters and a soft silver nap at early stage. Export-grade stems with consistent grading, strong heads and reliable vase performance ship well for high-volume retail lines.
Leucospermum Ayoba® Red™ (Leucospermum cordifolium × Leucospermum glabrum) has vivid reds deepening to scarlet with yellow pollen presenters; centres open from light green with a fine silvery tomentum to an even rounded head. Great for straight-line bunches, mass-market retail floral lines, large-scale mixed bouquets, and colour-themed promotions. Locally grown in South Africa by our supplier farms.
