Plumosum Male
Plumosum Male presents tight red cone-like buds along slender stems, adding colour, texture, and depth to bouquet fillers. With durable stems and reliable grading, it performs consistently in bulk floral exports.
Plumosum Male (Leucadendron rubrum) is known for its compact, scale-patterned buds in shades of red and burgundy, held along upright woody stems. The foliage is narrow and deep green, offering contrast that highlights the decorative bracts. Native to South Africa, it is cultivated locally for international markets and is used widely in bouquet fillers, straight-line bunches, and mass-market retail floral programmes. Its colourful cones provide seasonal interest, especially in autumn and winter promotions.
